Venom Inc Forced To Postpone North American Tour Until 2023 Due to Visa Logistics

British NWOBHM legends Venom Inc have been sadly forced to postpone their North American tour until 2023.  Slated to kick off on October 27th in New York City, the tour would’ve been the band’s first US run supporting their fantastic new album There’s Only Black but due to logistical issues this will not be happening.

Venom Inc. released the following statement:

It is with great frustration and regret we must announce that our planned East Coast US run must be pushed into 2023..

In the mean time we will plan the West Coast dates to happen earlier in 2023..

Basically due to the US Embassy in Portugal having such a backlog caused by the previous Covid situation , they have felt it not possible to allow an appointment interview for a visa before mid November.

Although we have been pushing for weeks and have been passed with all paperwork required and fees paid, the government are the ones who hold the wand over us and have refused to expedite us in this instance so we are left with no choice but to postpone.

Something are beyond our control so we apologize but rest assured we will hit hard, heavy and loud in 2023 so hold fast and we will see you soon!!

While extremely disappointed, I know that Venom Inc will return to North American soil with even more fire and drive than ever.  For now, you really should check out their latest album There’s Only Black and keep your eyes here for updates for their 2023 tour!

I have been running this blog since 2009. AKA as the Great Southern Brainfart, Southeast of Heaven is my baby now and forever. I’ve had my ups and downs with bands over the years but they are all great experiences and memories. My Swedish friend Charlie said once, “Don is known for being one of the meanest bastards in American rock journalism.” It’s nice to be loved.

I also once took a shit in Anthrax’s dressing room toilet and didn’t flush.
