| Stereophonics concert chronology | |
The Graffiti on the Train Tour was a worldwide concert tour by rock band Stereophonics. The band have played at festivals as well as their own shows while on the tour. It was the band's first tour without drummer Javier Weyler, who was replaced by Jamie Morrison.[1] The tour started in Newport, Wales on 15 December 2012 and is set to end in London, England on 28 November 2013. During their leg in Japan, lead singer Kelly Jones twisted his ankle after a night out with Morrison. With their flight due to leave within a few hours and Jones unable to walk, bassist Richard Jones had to transport the singer across the airport in a luggage trolley. For the next gigs, Jones had to wear a leg strap which restricted his movement on stage.[2] Later on while on the Australian leg, he also suffered from a respiratory tract infection which forced the band to cancel their show in Melbourne on 23 July, Stereophonics' first cancellation in 17 years.[3] Before their American leg of the tour,[4] a competition was held by Creative Allies for people to design a poster for the leg.[5] The winner, Yiotu,[6] won $500 and a Stereophonics prize pack.[5] During the last leg of the tour, The Wind and The Wave supported the band from 7–16 November.[7][8] For the remaining dates, Kitty, Daisy & Lewis were the band.[8]
