Heard a rumour about it not going ahead, but that was about 3 weeks ago!! Something about not getting planning permision, poor organisation, poor ticket sales, no-one communicating with anyone; the usual.

*all rumours, mind*

Just checked Ticket Master and they have stated it was cancelled..
Plus Babyshamble have just announced a tour which would have seen them play Lets Rock half way through and that isn't happening now...

i got my refund from ticket master so it's all good.

i reckon it's cancelled cos hardly anyone knew about it so they didn't sell enough tickets.

Apparently it's due to the main sponsors not fulfilling their promises. Just what I heard so I might be wrong.
