Caleb Followill at Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Irvine during healthier days

​Kings of Leon just canceled their entire U.S. summer tour in the wake of a Dallas show on Friday that was cut short after lead singer Caleb Followill left the stage to vomit, Rolling Stone reports. A band rep says Followill has been "suffering from vocal issues and exhaustion." But because of the band's international touring commitments, their U.S. shows will not rescheduled. Tickets for those gigs will be refunded at point of purchase, or automatically refunded if ordered online. More >>

This morning, Prince announced that he's performing the next three shows of his Welcome 2 America Live: 21 Nite Stand tour, all at the House of Blues Sunset (albeit at different spots within the venue). Tickets went on sale at Ticketmaster.com and LiveNation.com. The Music Hall show will be at 8 p.m., the Jazz Café at the Porch Restaurant show at 11 p.m. and a private charity event in the Foundation Room at 1 a.m. The tickets are gone (who wouldn't want to see Prince at such an intimate venue?), but at least one group of people are unhappy about it.

Grateful Dead tribute band Cubensis was dumped in favor of Prince tonight; they were booked with a Bob Dylan tribute for a "Dylan's 70th Birthday Party" event. Unfortunately, they were told just last night of the schedule change.

It hasn't been the best week for Detroit Bar--yesterday, we told you about LA hip hop duo People Under the Stairs rescheduling their show this Thursday to December 11. This time, it's tomorrow's Deer Tick show, which has been canceled due to a death in the family of one of the band members. Advance tickets will be refunded at point-of-purchase.

If your Thursday night plans included watching People Under the Stairs at Detroit Bar in Costa Mesa, good news! Well, depending on how you look at it. Your night is now free.

From the "well, you kind of had to see this coming" department: Kanye West and Lady Gaga have canceled their much-publicized, co-headlining "Fame Kills" tour, which was to stop at Anaheim's Honda Center on November 15. (Yes, surely a lot of people are going to be using "'Fame Kills' Killed." Who could resist?)

Rob Zombie, who built his career on songs like "Living Dead Girl" and directed the last two Halloween movies, is playing the Grove of Anaheim on the day after Halloween (November 1, for the non-calendar inclined). That's a pretty big coup, akin to getting the Pogues to play on St. Patrick's Day. Well, the day after St. Patrick's Day, at least.

Yesterday, we shared a delightful Q&A between our writer Gabriel San Roman and Mexican singing superstar Lila Downs, in anticipation of her show this Wednesday at the Grove of Anaheim--a show that's now not going to happen. Turns out, Downs had to get her appendix out over the weekend. (As someone with the experience of getting one out, it's really not nearly as fun as it sounds.)

UPDATE: The Grove of Anaheim have announced a rescheduled date for the Lila Downs show; Sunday, October 25. Yay! All tickets purchased for the August 26 show will be honored.
