Black Label Society drops off tour due to Zakk Wyldes health


Black Label Society BLACK LABEL SOCIETY has performed their last show on The Pedal To The Metal Tour due to the health of frontman ZAKK WYLDE.

Today's BLS appearance in Eugene has been canceled, along with the remaining BLS appearances on the tour.

The Pedal To The Metal Tour will continue without Black Label Society, and the rest of the bands will all be participating throughout the remaining dates on the tour. Please visit www.pedaltothemetaltour.com for tour dates.

BLS apologizes to ticket holders on the remaining Pedal To The Metal dates for the inconvenience, as well as to all BLSNATION Meet & Greet purchasers who gathered for the event this afternoon and in the remaining cities. BLSNATION refunds will be processed promptly.

Further updates on Zakk's medical condition will become available as they are known.
