THE RIFLES CANCEL SHOWS OVER CLOSED VENUE

British rockers THE RIFLES have been forced to cancel two London shows - after learning the venue they were scheduled to play wasn't open.

The Rifles performing live at the HMV store, Oxford Street London, England - 20.07.06

The band was set to perform at The Garage in the British capital on 2 and 3 June (08), but the bar, which is currently closed for renovations, will still be undergoing building work until later this year (08) - after an "asbestos issue" was discovered.

In a statement the band apologised for the situation, but conceded the matter was "out of their hands".

A statement from the venue reads, "We would like to apologise to the thousand of fans, artists etc who have looked forward to the re-opening of this legendary venue and remain committed to re-opening the Garage at the earliest possible opportunity."
