CANCER CANCELS SPECIAL OPS INVASION OF CANADIAN TOUR DATES!

Due to the unfortunate event of Special Ops bassist Waldo Thornhill being diagnosed with colon cancer just days before the Special Ops “Bringin The Madness” cross Canada tour was to kick off on May 2nd in Ottawa. The decision to cancel all May tour dates has been made.

“This is really a difficult moment for me, I really wanted to do this tour, but on the advice of my doctors I must remain in Montreal and do treatment. Says Thornhill. “It was a life or death choice for me and I want to thanks the fans for understanding and I look forward to my return to the stage.”

The dates that will be performed from the scheduled tour are the following:

· June 7, 2008, - The Underground, 41 Catharine St., Hamilton, Ontario
· June 28, 2008 - Club Social, 810 East Main Street, Welland, Ontario
· July 19, 2008 - Bar St Laurent, 5550 St. Laurent. Montreal, Quebec

“It’s a difficult choice for the band as a whole, were so close like a family and have this happen to one of us it just shocking, but I know the music will heal us all.” Says SO guitarist Akbar Johnson.

Bassist Waldo Thornhill will be entering treatment and is thanking the support of family, friends and fans for this difficult time.

“I’m going kick the ass out of this cancer, who does it think it is creeping into my bum.” Says Thornhill.
