Well, arizona is keeping the arch enemy concert but it sounds like we are dropping the Hypocricy concert.
I don't know your individual town's promoters but you should learn the politics behind bringing a show to your town. It isn't simply just a band wanting to hit every town in the country.
Hypocricy, Arch enemy, or whomever is on tour has their booking agent set up the tour. They ask each individual local promoter for a certain amount. Some negotiations are made and if the price is agreed upon, the show is coming. The local promoter has to figure how many people will realistically show up in your town and the size of your various clubs. This helps figure out how much they will charge per ticket. There is some more stuff but this is the basics.
In our case, Hypocricy would not lower their price even after ARch enemy dropped off the tour. There is no way that the hypocricy tour would draw many people in arizona so the local promoters would lose alot of money. That is why that show isn't looking like it will happen here.
