As a result of The Blackout’s Gavin Butler being taken ill at the Manchester Academy 2 last night, the band has been forced to pull out of the remaining dates on the ‘Final Party’ tour which had been due to finish up in Dublin on November 3rd.
A full explanation regarding the band’s decision to pull out of the rest of the tour can be found below:
Hey guys,
So some of you may already be aware of what’s happened with Gavin, others may not be. Long story short, at our show at Manchester Academy 2 last night (Oct 26th), Gavin suffered a recurrence of a neurological issue known as a hemiplegic migraine, which can affect motor skills, including speech and loss of sensation in certain limbs. As a result, he left the stage two songs from the end of the set.
Having consulted local medical advice, in addition to what Gavin was told in hospital when this issue had occurred earlier this year, it’s become clear that one of the key issues in helping Gav get better is rest.
Unfortunately, that has put us in a difficult position, and it’s with great regret that we have to announce we will not be performing any of the remaining dates on the “Final Party” tour at this time. This is not a decision we have taken lightly, but we have to put the well being of the members of the band above all else, and we cannot perform to the standards we think you guys deserve without Gavin.
We will be working on a solution to this in the coming days, and will let you know the moment we know when we’ll be able to play again.
We are truly sorry guys, but we hope you understand. Your words of kindness have been humbling and very much appreciated. We will see you soon.
The Blackout.

A Day To Remember will be coming over to the UK in February, and it has now been announced that Every Time I Die will be joining them on the tour as special guests.
Every Time I Die frontman Keith Buckley had the following to say about the band’s future plans:
It’s been a while since anyone in the ETID camp has checked in with our millions upon millions of fans, so while I sit here waiting for my lunch to arrive I thought I’d let you all in on some cool things because everyone knows that sitting at a table with “close” “friends” is a perfect time to stare silently at your phone. We are about to go to Australia to headline some club shows. The where’s and when’s are on our website which you can look up for yourself, I’m not your mom. After that we end the Ex Lives tour cycle with a headline run around the US of A with Letlive and Code Orange Kids that promises to be full of the best shows we’ve played all year. That info is also on our website so look it up you lazy bums and get tickets before it sells out so you don’t have to ask us on the Internet to let you in, in exchange for beer. now, once that is finished we had planned to begin writing our next record but here is where the news report takes a wild twist…. In January we will be postponing the writing process to visit the UK and Europe one more time with our friends in A Day To Remember. We’ve never toured with them before anywhere in the world and we love playing shows across the pond, so these will be an entirely new breed of fierce animal. The dates will be available on our website shortly if they aren’t already, but you can also hit us up on Twitter and ask us questions that you could just as easily Google the answers to. We good? Can I make eye contact with my friends now? Thanks. See you soon.

With the Classic Mode of Football Manager 2013 having restricted the user to only having three playable nations, this is something that has been reconsidered in Football Manager 2014, with users now able to add as many additional nations as they wish, totalling a player count of up to 50,000.
Unlockables is another area that has been developed, with expansions and developments having been made to the unlockables available within the game.
