Thrice has cancelled their remaining tour dates with Manchester Orchestra due to a family emergency.
Due to a family emergency, Dustin had to fly home this morning, and as a result, we will not be playing tonight’s show in St. Louis.
Thanks for your understanding.
**UPDATE**
The remaining dates on our co-headline tour with Manchester Orchestra (& O’Brother) have been cancelled. Ticket refunds will be made available at point of purchase. We are very very sorry to have to do this, but please trust that we would not be taking this sort of action unless dire circumstances were involved.

Thrice are preparing to hit the road for three weeks this Spring on a co-headlining trek with Manchester Orchestra. The month-long tour supports Thrice’s recent album Beggars (09/09, Vagrant) and will commence with two nights in Manchester Orchestra’s hometown of Atlanta, GA before wrapping through the country. The tour concludes in Albuquerque, NM on May 9, with O’Brother supporting both bands on all dates. Thrice continues to work with Invisible Children, the charity working to raise awareness about the war in northern Uganda, and will have advocates out on the road this Spring.
Vocalist Dustin Kensrue shares his excitement about the upcoming trek by saying, “We’ve only gotten to hang out [with Manchester Orchestra] in passing, so we’re excited to get out on the road with them. They’re a great band and one of the few out there that I feel an affinity with in more ways than one.”
