If you were hoping to catch Avenged Sevenfold at any point this year, I've got some bad news for you.
The band have no plans to do anything in 2019 regarding touring and instead will be focusing on family life and writing new music.
The news came via radio personality Lou Brutus, who posted the following update:
Was just texting with Zacky Vengeance and asked him about Avenged Sevenfold touring. He told me, "I don't think we will be doing any touring this year. Got some new babies on the way and are starting to get really focused on new material. I never deal in absolutes, but right now it's leaning heavily towards 2020." While I'm bummed about no touring for awhile, I'm very happy for their family additions and eventual new music. Excelsior!
So don't hold your breath until next year, at least.
