12/12/08 D12 Writes To Fans, Announces European Tour

After finishing a Canadian tour with Royce Da 5'9 and Joe Budden, D12 is preparing to hit Europe next year. Below check out a personal letter from the group to their fans...

Dear Fans,


D12's, Christmas plans to return to European soil after a 4 year hiatus has unfortunately been postponed due to the conflicting work schedules of our supporting artists as well as changes in UK work permit requirements. Apologies to all of you who have been writing to us and bought tickets for these events, we truly relish your support of D12 and we hate to let you down. However we are pleased to announce newly confirmed dates for the tour which will begin mid March 2009 and now includes additional dates in Copenhagen, Vienna and Zurich. The live show will boast exclusive new cuts and material from the rap collective and we will still be performing live with fellow Detroit native and Shady alum Royce Da 5'9". Newly added to the tour lineup is the wildly popular Canadian rapper Classified plus special guests to be announced shortly. Tickets that were purchased for the original December tour dates will also be valid for the rescheduled dates.


New Dates as follows:

23/03/09 Vienna - The Flex
24/03/09 Zurich - Rohstofflager
26/03/09 Cologne - Luxor
27/03/09 Berlin - Columbia Club
28/03/09 Copenhagen - Pumpehuset
29/03/09 Amsterdam - Melkweg
31/03/09 Manchester - Academy
01/04/09 Glasgow - ABC
02/04/09 Dublin - Tripod
03/04/09 London - Electric Ballroom

D12 have scored four top 5 hits in the UK and will be releasing new cuts from their forthcoming album in early 2009. They will be back in the studio for a brand new album as a collective for release post tour.

Their latest mixtape 'RETURN OF THE DIRTY DOZEN VOL 1' features Royce Da 5'9", King Gordy and more and has had over 166,000 downloads since it was released at the end of summer this year.
