Gorillaz Cancel Tour Plans

Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett, the two live humans behind cartoon-band Gorillaz, have announced the cancellation of their planned world tour owing to the sky-high price–reportedly over $1.5 million–of a fully animated concert tour. According to Hewlett, “We’ve tried really hard to work out a way but the costs would be just astronomical.” Gorillaz performed with De La Soul and Madonna at this year’s Grammy Awards ceremony.http://contactmusic.com/new/xmlfeed.nsf/mndwebpages/gorillaz%20ditch%20world%20tour%20plans_22_02_2006
