Following Keane's recent tour postponement (stemming from lead-crooner Tom Chaplin's recent hot date with rehab), pond-skipping trek-mates Razorlight have also been forced to rearrange their U.S. show schedule.

The London four-piece have postponed three headlining gigs-- Los Angeles' Roxy (August 30), San Francisco's Popscene (August 31), and New York's Bowery Ballroom (September 11)-- and have also called off all Keane-supporting dates for the time being.

A statement from Razorlight's management reads, "Razorlight have been forced to postpone their own headline shows...due to the last minute cancellation of the first part of Keane's U.S. dates. Razorlight were due to support Keane on the first leg of the tour, however the withdrawal of the Keane shows left their own schedule in chaos, forcing the band to drop their own gigs...The band are hugely disappointed that they have to delay their U.S. gigs and are in the process of rescheduling for Dec./Jan. when the band will return for substantial touring."

In the meantime, Razorlight will go forth with the remainder of their jaunt, which kicks off in Japan in late September. At this time, no word has been given regarding the status of the band's Toronto V Fest appearance.
