This fall’s co-headlining run with Bush and Stone Temple Pilots is off, but STP will continue on their solo tour

Bush and Stone Temple Pilots have canceled their forthcoming co-headlining U.S. tour due. While the joint trek is off, STP will still perform their own headlining dates this fall.

Bush took to social media Saturday (Sept. 11) to announced that due to “unfortunate and unavoidable COVID-related circumstances,” the tour would be halted. Bush and STP also shared that Bush was the band to pull the plug on the shows. The tour was scheduled to begin Sept. 30 and run though an Oct. 16 date.

Here’s Bush’s full statement:

“Due to unfortunate and unavoidable COVID-related circumstances, we will be unable to move forward with our planned Fall tour dates — including our festival appearances and our tour with Stone Temple Pilots. We cannot stress enough how heartbreaking it is to not be able to go out and play after all of this time, and after all of our attempted starts and ensuing stops over the past year and a half. We wish to extend our deepest apologies as this is the last thing we would want for all our great fans as well as our good friends in Stone Temple Pilots.?”

The Gavin Rossdale-fronted band was fairly vague about the meaning of “COVID-related circumstances and whether the Delta variant or COVID protocols had anything to do with the decision.

Stone Temple Pilots took to social media to confirm their dates with Bush were off but also stated that their solo dates were still on, stating:

“STP friends and family, unfortunately Bush has had to cancel their upcoming tour with us that was to start at the end of this month. … We are of course saddened by this news, but it’s a sign of the times right now. That said, our headline dates starting on October 17th are still on! The only headline date that is being canceled is Oct 9th in Chattanooga, as that was during the Bush run and can no longer fit with the schedule. We’d love to see you all out there for the below dates, and we’re so very much looking forward to coming back to all canceled markets as soon as we can.?”
