All shows up 'til the 11th of November, including appearances at the Electronic Beats Festival in Bratislava, Slovakia.
Affected dates are listed below:

An official statement posted on the band's website read:
"It is with great regret that we have had to pull-out of the European leg of the current Underworld tour due to severe illness in the band.
"More details will follow, but in the meantime, we appreciated your patience and understanding."
Speaking again in an interview with BBC 6Music, second member Karl Hyde expounded slightly: "“It has taken its toll on him, but the Welsh are a resilient bunch and he is bouncing back now.”
Boing, boing, boing.
