Brokencyde Address Rumors Surrounding Warped Tour Absence


Brokencyde have released a statement addressing the rumors that they were kicked off the remaining dates of this year's Warped Tour. The band is currently in the UK and will return back to US soil in time to kick of their "Crunk Kids Tour" in October.

"So here I am sitting in Amsterdam and as per usual, people have nothing better to do than spread rumors about Brokencyde. The current rumor is that we got kicked off Warped Tour, which is so far removed from the truth," says Mikl from Brokencyde. "We had some UK dates and festivals, which conflicted with the last few dates of Warped Tour so couldn't play them. Anyone who pays any attention to our MySpace would have seen the tour dates and flyer for these UK shows and would have noticed we weren't playing the last few Warped shows. Brokencyde didn't get kicked off the tour or scared by anyone, even those bands who gave us shout-outs during their set every day (Thank you Gallows and Alexisonfire). We want to thank Kevin Lyman for allowing us to be a part of his traveling summer circus this year, as it was an amazing experience and we only hope to be invited back next year. Thanks to the Crunk Kids who came out to show their support every day and we will be back on tour shortly so keep checking our MySpace for dates and cities."
They might just be the most loved and hated band in America, but Albuquerque, NM based Brokencyde silenced critics by debuting at #87 on the Billboard Top 200 with their new album "I'm Not A Fan But The Kids Like It". The band toured all summer long as a part of this year's Warped Tour and are set to embark on a headlining tour in October.
