Heavy rockers Nile have cancelled an upcoming tour of India after three bandmembers were refused work visas.
The group was due to play a number of dates in the country next month (May12), including the Summer Blaze Metal Festival in New Delhi on 5 May (12), but they have now scrapped the shows due to immigration issues.
A statement from the group, obtained by Blabbermouth.net, reads, "We are extremely sad to inform this to our fans in India that our tour of India has been called off as the visas for three of the members were refused today by the Indian embassy in Washington, D.C...
"The Indian embassy has not cited any reasons for rejection of the visas. It was, and is, beyond the control of the band, either of the promoters or the artist management. We did all we could to make this happen and tried working on getting the three visas for almost a month!... All fans... who have booked tickets... shall be refunded in full... But this is not the end and all of us are going to try to get Nile back to India."
