The Sword concert chronology |
Between November and December 2010 a 26-date European leg was due to take place, but was cancelled early in October due to "circumstances beyond [the band's] control",[1] later revealed to be the departure of drummer Trivett Wingo from the band.[2] Drummer Kevin Fender joined the Sword as a touring member of the band in November, and is performing with the band on a rescheduled America leg throughout November and December, and on the Australian Soundwave festival leg in 2011.[3][4]
