About to head out on the 3rd to the last stop of the 10th Anniversary tour, Rock The Bells has been canceled for the Washington DC & New York dates due to a slump in ticket sales. The rumors began circulating about an hour ago when Ticket Master updated their RTB info to “Canceled”. However, RFK Stadium has indeed informed callers the show will officially not take place. As of now, no official statements have been released from Guerilla Union or Rock The Bells.

It’s extremely unfortunate that we can’t complete the last half of the 10th Anniversary Rock the Bells tour. We did everything in our power to save the show.
