Shining have issued the following:
"We are very sorry to have to announce that despite all the hard work and effort of everyone involved in the organisation of the North American tour in January, Shining will not be able to travel to the US/Canada because of some last minute visa problems that have arisen.We are very disappointed by this, and we will do our best to get over as soon as we can."
Shining were among the acts who performed at the Eindhoven Metal Meeting, which took place December 19th, 2009 at the Effenaar in Eindhoven, Netherlands.
