Bad news for industrial fans that were looking forward to seeing Chris Connelly reunite with Al Jourgensen on this summer's Industrial Strength Tour.
Only days after announcing he was going to be part of the tour, Connelly announced via Twitter that he has dropped off the tour due to "unforseen circumstances" and deleted his previous tweet. Connelly didn't go into details, but it's possible he's withdrawn due to recent reports regarding Ministry's current guitarist Sin Quirin.
Whatever the reason, be advised Connelly has dropped off.
The Industrial Strength Tour, which celebrates the 30th anniversary of The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste kicks off July 1st in Seattle and features performances from Ministry, KMFDM and Front Line Assembly.
Chris Connelly greatly regrets to announce that, due to unforeseen circumstances, he will not be joining Ministry on this summer's Industrial Strength tour.— Chris Connelly (@Connelly_Chris) January 19, 2020
