While Bad Omens are currently on the road, it looks as though they encountered a bit of drama with their planned tour with The Amity Affliction, Senses Fail, and Belmont. It’s been two days since the tour was announced on Tuesday (6th) and now it appears Bad Omens will no longer be joining the trek, which is scheduled to kick off on January 4th, 2019 in Anaheim, CA. According to Senses Fail and The Amity Affliction, the reason is due to Bad Omens being unhappy about the size of their name on the tour artwork.
Read the statement below:
“We have to let you know that Bad Omens have pulled out of this tour. They were unhappy about the size of their name on the artwork and felt the need to pull out the day after we announced the tour.
Both The Amity Affliction and Senses Fail are working hard to find a replacement and we look forward to sharing that with you as soon as possible.”
Fans have instantly decided to troll Bad Omens’ Facebook by placing comments including:
“If you do a headliner with less than 10 dates y’all deserve comic sans 7 point font.”
Bad Omens hasn’t responded to this matter. However, Sumerian Records founder Ash Avildsen addressed the issue via Twitter, stating:
“Older bands bullying younger bands, both privately in deal points and publicly on the internet. cool story guys. take notes from the movie business- bullying people in the industry will no longer be tolerated-no matter who your manager or agent is, or how “powerful” you are.”
