Punk icon Ted Leo's plans for a tour sans Pharmacists have hit a snag. Leo announced via his Twitter account that he was "in the midst of a very bad time," and would have to cancel the first two weeks of dates. This essentially wipes out the East Coast leg of the tour, with the first on-schedule show being a February 19 gig at L.A.'s Skybar. Leo fans in the East shouldn't give up hope though; he's already posted some rescheduled dates on his website. [Pitchfork]
