Kings of Convenience @ Metro 2/20 POSTPONED till June
Word came in late last night from the Metro that the much-anticipated Kings of Convenience U.S. tour has been postponed a few months. Posts on the band's MySpace page is that Erik Glambek Bøe is sick.

Eirik fell ill yesterday, and today the doctor says its a flu-virus. I dont know more than this at the moment , but check this space for more info today and tomorrow. The scheduled appearance at Jimmy Fallon show on thursday will in any case most likely fall out. :-( Erlend
So instead of rolling into Chicago next weekend, they're going to wait until June 10th to play the Metro. All tickets purchased for the February 20th show will be honored, so not to fear. If you cannot make the rescheduled date, refunds are available at your point of purchase. Speedy recovery, Erik!
