NIGHTWISH: Tonight's Show In Hartford Cancelled

Finnish/Swedish symphonic metallers NIGHTWISH have issued the following update via their official web site:

"The Mexico City airport staff left the four most important cases of our backline in Mexico, so the show tonight [Tuesday, May 6] in Hartford will be cancelled.

"We are very, very sorry about this, but there is nothing we can do without certain pieces of our own gear."

"The Islander", the new single from NIGHTWISH, will be released on May 21 and will include the following tracks:

01. The Islander
02. Escapist (instrumental version)
03. Meadows Of Heaven (orchestral version)

Additionally, it will include the videos for "The Islander" and "Bye Bye Beautiful".

The video for "The Islander" was shot last autumn in Rovaniemi, Finland and was directed by Stobe Harju.
