This from Dana Robinson

Difficult and unexpected news my friends... Seems I was a bit too enthusiastic about preparing our house to leave before our much anticipated UK tour this Fall. I fell off a ladder and landed on my wrist resulting in a pretty bad break.
I am now out of commission for 6-8 weeks, and have had to cancel our UK tour. To all our UK fans and promoters, please accept our deepest and most sincere apologies that we won't be seeing you this year. Hope to make it up to you next year!
