"This is extremely difficult for us, but we have to inform you that, unfortunately, the 'Free the Monkey' tour will have to be postponed due to illness," the band said on social media.

"We have tried everything to make this almost completely sold-out tour happen as planned, but health comes first," the statement reads. "We are very sad, as you probably are."


"Unfortunately, at this time we are unable to give 100% and anything less would not be fair. We are working hard to reschedule the shows and will give you as much notice as possible, so you can make plans in advance," the band explains.

The German band's return to Portugal was scheduled for November 23rd. It was initially scheduled for LAV – Lisboa ao Vivo but, due to high demand for tickets, the show was moved to Sala Tejo at Meo Arena.

Tickets already purchased are valid for a new date, yet to be defined. However, those who prefer can request a refund for the ticket within 30 days at the place where the ticket was purchased.
