Five Finger Death Punch‘s spring tour with Papa Roach, I Prevail and Ice Nine Kills has been postponed and rescheduled for the fall. The trek was originally due to run from April 8th to May 20th, but will now kick off on September 28th in Sunrise, Florida.
Five Finger Death Punch said in a statement, “The Five Finger Death Punch Spring 2020 U.S. tour originally scheduled to kick off in Sunrise, FL on April 8 and run through May 20 in St. Paul, MN is being rescheduled to fall 2020. The rescheduled new dates are listed below. Please hold on to your tickets as they will be honored accordingly. We thank you for your understanding. Be safe and stay healthy.”
Mass gatherings right now are a dangerous place to be, and Five Finger Death Punch does not want to put its fans in peril. Guitarist Zoltan Bathory told us that Five Finger Death Punch owes everything to its fans: “We have to thank everything to them. Every band is as big as its fan base, you know. You can throw as much money and effort into somebody's music, you cannot make people like your music, you know what I mean? So I would say, whatever we have and how big this band became is because of the fans. And our fans are absolutely loyal. I mean, it's almost cult-like, you know.”
The concert industry has come to an almost complete halt for the next few months as the world deals with the spread of the coronavirus. Five Finger Death Punch joins a lengthy list of acts that have canceled or postponed tours around the globe.
