Apocalyptica Cancels Gig With Metallica and HIM

APOCALYPTICA has cancelled its July 15 appearance with METALLICA at the Olympic Stadium in Finland due to Perttu Kivilaakso injuring his finger in the U.S. during a photo session. Under doctor's orders, Kivilaakso will not perform with the group for three months while he recovers from his injury.

H.I.M. and APOCALYPTICA were the scheduled opening acts for METALLICA at the Helsinki show. A replacement act for APOCALYPTICA has not yet been announced.
