New York’s H20 Drop Off Warped Tour Lineup

Shortly after the Warped Tour lineup was announced on Wednesday night, New York punk hardcore band H20 disappeared off the bill with no explanation.

Promoter AJ Maddah has confirmed via Twitter the band would not be making the trip and should not have been announced.

H2O were never confirmed for #WarpedAU and should not have been on the poster in the 1st place.

We invited H2O & initially it looked positive so they were on draft line up & mock artwork. Unfortunately wrong file was sent out #WarpedAu

On Thursday, H20 guitarist Todd Morse gave the impression he the band was confirmed for the tour.

Hey Australia, see you at @warpedtourAU also, can you give us @pink back soon. She is missed! Thanks

Maddah said it was doubtful their name would appear on the second artist announcement at the end of July.

@BurkeTiny To be honest we gave them a very reasonable offer and they came back asking for insane money. So very doubtful.
