Metal Shock Finland (World Assault )

Legendary UK all-female rock band Girlschool have issued the following statement:

Why this REALLY is the FINAL Girlschool USA tour!

Hi everyone!

Our Final USA tour starts today in Houston at the wonderful Hell’s Heroes Festival,

We hope to have some Westcoast only dates to add later in the year (as a “Part two leg”), but other than that, this is 100% it… We have made every effort to reach as many markets in the Eastern half of North America as we can.

The cost of visas, flights, internal transport costs, the logistics… and the distance between the cities means that this truly is a “Once more for the American fans” series of dates… in order to say goodbye.

With us to celebrate this tour we have the fantastic Alcatrazz and Lillian Axe.

The hoops to jump through for a UK band to tour the States are multiple and enormous.

So even if you have to travel a little to make it to a show, we’d be happy to see you there, one last time!

Cheers you lot!
