Nachdem wegen Lemmys angeschlagenem Gesundheitszustand ein Großteil der Sommerfestivals abgesagt werden musste, haben MOTÖRHEAD nun auch die für November und Dezember geplante Europatour auf kommendes Jahr verschoben. Wann genau in 2014 die Tour nachgeholt wird, steht noch nicht fest. Mit folgendem Statement nimmt Lemmy Stellung zur Verschiebung:
"I have to sadly let you know that MOTÖRHEAD has had to postpone the forthcoming European tour until early next year, 2014. We have made the decision because I am not quite ready to hit the road yet, and am working my way back to full fitness and rude health. Don't worry — I'm not about to start promoting veganism and alcohol-free beverages, but it is fair to say that I personally have been reconfiguring areas of my life to make sure I can come back fitter and stronger than ever. It disappointed me tremendously to have to say I wasn't quite ready to hit the road yet, but not nearly as much as it would've disappointed me to go out, play some average shows and watch my health give way long before the tour was over! When people come to see a MOTÖRHEAD tour, they expect a MOTÖRHEAD show, and that is exactly what you will get as soon as I am fit and ready to rumble. Your patience and understanding is appreciated...and know that I'm getting stronger and stronger every day, so watch out next spring Europe and we will see you then.
Thank you all."
