Rock bands cancel gigs at Wembley

Deftones who are scheduled to play at the SSE Arena next weekend have canceled their Wembley show.

The band confirmed to CBS that they were at the Paris’ Le Bataclan venue and left minutes before the tragic loss of life happened.

Other rock bands scheduled to play Wembley include Five Finger Death Punch and Papa Roach who are yet to confirm any changes to their London dates.

In response to fans, Papa Roach, tweeted ‘We are talking to city councils and will update everyone ASAP. We love you guys!’

News of Deftones cancelling their remaining tour dates came via the bands Facebook page.

Edited 23 November.

This is an update in which we wrote that Deftones canceled their gig at SSE Arena Wembley which was incorrect. The Deftones gig is not canceled and is now rescheduled to June 2016.
