Due to perform headline shows, in addition to their support slot on Black Sabbath's farewell tour, the band will no longer play the scheduled dates this April.

"It is especially disappointing to Five Finger Death Punch that they will not be able to play before Black Sabbath, a band Five Finger Death Punch has deep reverence for, on Black Sabbath’s last ever shows in Australia.

"Ivan and Five Finger Death Punch express their sincere apologies to both their fans and to the fans of Black Sabbath," a comment from organisers reads.
