Canadian metallers PROTEST THE HERO have updated their MySpace page with the following message from frontman Rody Walker:

"Dear Clit-Licking Cloonies and Cock-Smoking Ball-Wranglers,

It is my unfortunate duty to inform you all that we will not be continuing on the SILVERSTEIN tour. From the often hatefilled and frequently dissapointed messages our MySpace has been receiving in relation to the cancelation of the Texas dates (specifically Dallas) I've decided that dropping those dates has impacted those who enjoy our music like feces in a clogged up colon... or is that compacted? I don't know.

With this daunting notion comes the realization that there will be more dissapointed emails to come as soon as your beaty little eyes graze this letter. I apologize profusely to those of you who bought tickets with the specific intention of seeing us play. If you sincerely have a problem with this that can not be resolved with me whispering an apology softly in your ear and kissing you upon your forehead.... we are willing to pay the travel fair to get you to my mothers house where we will sort things out like human beings... and I do mean bare knuckle boxing. However, dually note underneath this thin pail flesh, I am actually Kimbo Slice.

Now what I'm sure you're all eagerly awaiting is a reason, some sort of crude justification to help your rage subside... if you're listening to 'After The Eulogy' this may be a serious problem. Without exposing specifics I will attempt to explain. While on tour recently, we realized our internal structure was built on a whimsicle foundation. We have become a disorganized touring band, and it's left the five of us exhausted and miserable. Ergo, we are revamping, whipping our team (and cream) into shape, polishing our rims, straightening our brims, and making a stab at semi-professionalism. Though dropping a tour may seem like a very unprofessional thing to do, we need this time to get our shit back on track.

I'd like you all to know that this time will not be used to just get drunk, hang ten and smooch babes, though I assure you we have set aside some time to do that. Your disappointment will be repaid in the flesh we plan to leave upon the roads this year, as we drag our bodies to each show. We'll be back in the States on April 1st to start the tour with CHIODOS. Hold fast to dreams duckies.

Rody "our bad..." Walker."
