Lethal Bizzle joins Riot tour absentee list

Motorway accident prevents him making Cardiff show

Lethal Bizzle has become the second act to pull his show at tonight’s (September 30) leg of the O2 NME Rock N roll Riot Tour in Cardiff.

Due to an accident on the M4, the star is stuck in traffic and unable to make it to the venue. He will be replaced by a Coventry band who are friends of headliners The Enemy.

He joins The Wombats on the cancelled list. The Liverpool trio pulled their appearance after frontman Matthew 'Murph' Murphy lost his voice. Tonight is the fourth night of the tour.
