At the moment, MASTODON has decided to continue on the tour as a trio. Doctors and Bill are hopeful that he will rejoin his band mates in time for their headlining tour of Europe which begins November 30, in Utrecht, Holland and will end on December 7, at the All Tomorrow’s Parties Festival in Somerset , England . More details to follow as they develop.
