Children of Bodom and Sylosis will continue on their European Tour without Lamb of God. After the cancellation of last night's show in the Netherlands due to security concerns, the band have decided to pull out of their co-headlining tour with Children of Bodom and Sylosis. The tour will continue on 22 December at Z7 Konzertfabrik, Switzerland.
Although Bodom wanted to go ahead with the performance, the promoter decided the best thing was to cancel the whole gig, which unfortunately left some people very unhappy.

Following the surprising cancellation, Lamb of God released a statement stating: “Due to concerns brought to our attention by the venue security team yesterday in Tilburg — and continued general concerns across Europe — we have decided against putting our fans, our crew and ourselves in this position night after night and will be cancelling the remainder of our performances in Europe.
“This is a decision we are making on behalf of the fans, our crew, and our band, as well as the well-being of everyone's family, friends and loved ones at home. Stay safe, and we will see you very soon.”
Adding to the previous statement, Children Of Bodom said, “Lamb Of God have chosen to leave the tour due to security concerns in Europe. Our team has been working very hard to make all of the remaining shows happen. We want to continue on the road and play the rest of the tour.
“Unfortunately, the promoter has decided to move forward and cancel tonight's show in Oberhausen, Germany, and the additional shows in Germany."
Motorhead and Foodfighters are also amongst a list of bands who have decided to cancel their French dates, in wake of last week's Paris terror attacks, which left 120 dead people.
