IKON NEWS
--- [29 August 2008] IKON has just begun rehearsing again in the past few weeks, as Dino's finger slowly recovers. The band has agreed to play a few shows as a part of an extravaganza of industrial and goth bands touring Australia in October. Unfortunately, September was just too early for the band to set off on an international tour, but we hope to get some practice in with these shows before setting off overseas in 2009.
--- [20 August 2008] Unfortunately, bass player Dino Molinaro's injured finger has, in part, lead to the cancellation of the planned September European tour. IKON apologises to anyone who had planned to come along to the shows. The good news is that this allows more time for the band to finish off the finer details of the new album over the next few months to make it the best IKON album yet. IKON will tour again next year, don't worry! And it will be bigger and better with some possible new countries on the itinerary. --- [23 June 2008]
