Denver show rescheduled (due to laryngitis)..
Good afternoon,
We’re so bummed to announce this, but our singer Mikel is still going through a bad case of laryngitis, and we have no choice but to reschedule tonight’s show in Denver at the Bluebird Theater for April 15 at the Ogden Theatre. As we mentioned before, Mikel came down with laryngitis toward the end of last week and has been under doctor’s orders not to speak for a few days. We’ve been waiting to see how his voice heals, but after a few days and no significant improvement, Mikel met again today with the doctor (a voice specialist), who told him that he not only has laryngitis, but a serious infection in his vocal cords, and that it’ll take longer than we thought to get better. Luckily, there’s no permanent damage.
Here’s the new date and venue:
Apr 15 – Denver, CO – Ogden Theatre (Rescheduled from Feb 23) – TIX
We’ve been really reluctant to postpone these past few shows, as we’d been looking forward to playing Boise, Salt Lake City, and Denver. It’s a been a crazy six months of non-stop touring for us, and we fully intend to keep it going full steam as soon as Mikel’s voice heals.
We’re so sorry for the last-minute notice and any inconvenience this causes. This whole ordeal is a wait-and-see kind of thing, and we’ve been trying not to reschedule any shows unnecessarily.
All purchased tickets will be honored at the new date and venue. If refunds are necessary, they can be made at the point of purchase. We really hope you can make it to the newly rescheduled dates.
On the bright side, the Ogden Theatre is a larger venue, so there will now be more tickets available. Tickets will go on sale starting tomorrow on the Ogden Theatre’s website:

We miss you, we love you, we hate this limbo business..

Hope you feel better soon, Mikel!
I’m wishing you all the best.
Muah!
No worries you guys. You have to take care of yourselves! Can’t wait to see you though!
get better soon mikel!
Wow. Thanks for not waiting till the last minute to announce this! Oh wait…you did.
I’m sorry to hear about the illness. Get well soon! Kick that laryngitis in the ass.
I look forward to seeing you in April then!
I don’t see why a larger venue should make me stoked… Sorry to be harsh, but the Bluebird is better than the Ogden.
So disappointed we couldn’t see you tonight, but we hope you get better very soon. Now, we’ll just look forward to April. (By the way, not only are you one of my favorite bands, but my 5 and 2 year old kids LOVE your music.)
Oh my gosh, I have never been so excited for a show to be postponed!! Our twins ended up with strep throat today, so my husband and I obviously decided that it was best skip the concert to stay home with the kids. I got home from the doctor at 4:00 and there it was in my inbox, the email from above, stating the concert would be held on April 15th. We’re so excited we still get the opportunity to see TATE.
Dudes, feel better soon. Throat is nothing to mess with.
Since it looks like the HCPeople are engaged when you return, you’ll be looking for a local band to open … I’d suggest The Kinetix, http://www.myspace.com/kinetixmusic or a band that really impressed me lately, Skyfox, http://www.myspace.com/skyfox .. give ’em a spin while you recover! You’ll be surprised at the talent in Denver’s music circle.
M, can’t help picturing your inflamed insides — it sounds (and quite frankly, looks) gross… 😉 Must be frustrating as hell. Best wishes; we’re thinking of you; see you in April.
Get well soon. Not to be a downer but if you reschedule Columbus Ohio, maybe I can get tickets (sold out now)for the new date. I’ve been talking to everyone about how great you guys are. You should add a date in Cincinnati Ohio!
We were at the Portland concert and Mikel was really frustrated about his voice. They weren’t able to play a long set because of it and he kept apologizing. Get well, take care Mikel.
Yes. Much agreed that the Ogden is a way worse venue than the Bluebird. I almost don’t want to go now.
Hey Mikel, hope you are soon feeling better. I’m sure you hate to disappoint the fans but you must look after your voice, we need it!!! You just work so hard. Now,(being totally selfish)any chance of an extra gig in Manchester, or anywhere in the north west of England! Sorry, but I would just love to see you guys play live and I missed out on the Manchester gigs. Take care, I do mean it. Much love xx
I like how people are upset at the band for not haphazardly canceling a show before they had to.
It must be a major inconvenience to…not have to go anywhere…at the last minute, huh?
you guys rock! keep up the great work. Peace
Hey
Get well soon Mikel
🙂
Im looking forward to seeing you in Glasgow at the end of March.
Hope you’re okay by then
No worries if you’re not.
I love you guys (:
