It wasn’t long after the storm rolled in that the Sword placed an ad looking for a new guitarist.

The Sword — the totally awesome Austin band that we swear we get high off of just by listening to their albums — just lost their drummer. Actually, he quit, so the group's whole tour is being canceled.

At least for now.

And that includes the band's October 19 show at House of Blues.

It totally blows because we love the Sword.

But they should be able to find a new drummer soon (it's just the drummer, right?), so hopefully we'll have a rescheduled Cleveland date to announce soon. —Michael Gallucci
