Psychedelic Porn Crumpets cancel UK and European tour after singer attacked by dog
Psychedelic Porn Crumpets have been forced to cancel the remainder of their 2024 UK and European tour after frontman Jack McEwan was attacked by a dog.The Australian psychedelic rock band played the first three shows of the run last week when they took to the stage in Birmingham (February 21), Glasgow (22) and Manchester (23).Further gigs had been scheduled in Leeds, Bristol, London and Southampton this month ahead of a string of European headline dates in March.Prior to the Crumpets’ concert in Leeds, however, McEwan shared a video on Instagram to reveal a nasty dog bite on his face.“Leeds! We are so sorry to do this, but unfortunately a dog bite has put Jack out of action tonight,” the band captioned the footage, which was filmed in a hospital room.“100 stitches later & a tetanus shot, we’re piecing him back together slowly. Unfortunately it means we can’t play the Leeds show tonight, BUT please keep hold of your tickets and we are working on announcing a rescheduled date ASAP.”Later, McEwan shared some “pretty bad news” with fans as he prepared to have surgery on the bite.“They’ve got me hooked up on the old drip here.
