Circulating on Twitter
Noelgallaher.com announces that because of logistic reasons Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds have cancelled the gig at Monterrey's Banamex Auditorium on April 10th.
Fans who bought their tickets via telephone, internet, outlets or at the box office will be able to get a refund starting January 23rd.
Can't find anything on the website though.

Sweet, he needs to reschedule that night somewhere in Dallas and stay in this country. I was a bit miffed to see him jump to Mexico without stopping here.
Sucks for those fans though.
Monterrey is actually closer to me than is Atlanta. Unbelievable.

"logistic reasons"... What do they mean by that? Did they double book a night?

"logistic reasons"... What do they mean by that? Did they double book a night? They mean there were still a LOT of tickets available. Guess 3000-4000 were sold, out of 8000-9000.

Would they cancel something still 3 month away because of sluggish ticket sales?
I had thought it had something to do with being 11 hrs away in Mexico City where his next gig was going to be. It is presumably where he will be doing the majority of the Mexican promotion. I had assumed maybe he had an offer to film something for TV or something and they needed him in Mexico City earlier that they had previously thought?
I'm sure the tickets sales meant that they were hardly fretting over the need to cancel though.

Its a 70 minutes flight from Monterrey to Mexico City, bands never travel by bus here, unless its a 2 hours trip, which is very rare
I dont think he will be going to tv shows, there are not too many he could go, maybe 1 or 2, its most likely to do some radio promo
Im almost a 100% sure it has something to do with the tickets sales, Peter Gabriel cancelled for the same reason: "logistic reasons", same city, same venue, thrice the price though, barely sold 1000 tickets

I assumed they always travelled by bus in America. Guess it's not the same in S. America.
Sucks for the few thousand that wanted to see him.

They fight or unless it would be long days on a tour bus to reach country to country(i live 8 hours away to caracas the city Oasis played in 09 and if they were touring on bus they wouln't made it on time to peru for the next date of that tour)

And yes, it is too bad for those people but whatever, there's not enough demand for Noel there, hope he makes a stop in Dallas though

If he added a Texas gig, I would be overjoyed. I'm driving from Louisiana to Atlanta for the Tabernacle Gig, would definitely drive back to Dallas to see Noel again.
