DARKEST HOUR AND VEIL OF MAYA KICKED OFF THEIR OWN TOUR BUS IN DALLAS

The above photo is of Darkest Hour, Veil of Maya and their respective crews after being booted from their own tour bus early Saturday morning; apparently an overbearing bus driver had had enough of their hard-partying ways, booted the bands, and drove his bus home. Thankfully they were already in Dallas for Saturday night’s show so they continued the party by setting up their own shanty town in the venue parking lot until show time. At present time we’re not sure whether the bands were successful in finding another bus to complete the tour in time for the next show.

Gossipy details to follow as soon as we have ‘em!

Remaining tour dates are posted here.

    So the lone bus driver kicked ten dudes off a bus against their will? Is this elementary school?

    “I’ll turn this damn bus around! That’ll end your precious field trip pretty damn quick huh! Little shit! “

      “We could fly right through a star or bounce too close to a supernova, and that’d end your trip real quick, wouldn’t it?”

    Why can’t this ever happen when shitty bands like Oceano or Chelsea Grin come to my town?

    • Austin Nutter

      Oh come now Chelsea Grin puts on a fun live show. I could’ve lived without Oceano though.

        not to mention, warbringer, blackguard, and mutiny within

        • AetherJake

          I’m pretty sure all of these bands are several times better than Oceano and Chelsea Grin. At least the have some grasp of melody.

            There are these things called subjective opinions. They are not rooted in fact but in a person’s opinion. Also who complains about not having melody on an extreme metal site?

      tragic

  • el fucko

    I bet the bus driver was a dumb Flyers fan and didn’t like the band wagoner wearing the Blackoks jersey.

    I’d kick Veil of Maya off my bus too.

  • Chainsword

    Wicked to party that hard, blows that the tour is not over. (and Atlanta’s date was two days away)

  • Slaughterhouse

    That sucks but kind of funny

  • Jason

    Good for that bus driver. Damn kids!

  • HARRYDICKERSON

    I just saw them all last night in Houston, so obviously they worked something out.

  • Bierko

    Both those bands suck.

    • http://www.facebook.com/people/Snagglebottom-Sharktopus-McDoodleheimer/1418565949 Snagglebottom Sharktopus McDoodleheimer

      I’ll keep that in mind.

  • Pat

    Why are these bands on a bus? Time to implement austerity measures on bands who think the sun shines outta their asses.

    • GerryWisdom

      +1

      especially fucking veil of maya…darkest hour, i could understand somewhat.

  • P67

    OCEAnO RULES ! ! !

    Metal Sucks

  • Pony

    Me and my friend talked to the bassist and singer of Veil of Maya after thier first show in worcester for 20 minutes outside. They were invited to ride along on the bus by darkest hour. but even if you hate the band the guys are pretty cool we didnt just ask them questions and they answered we had full on conversations like they had known us for years. they were really approachable and humble. as people they are awesome as a band im not going to tell you what to like and hate.
