30 Seconds To Mars Cancel Two Tour Dates

Who: Best known as an actor, Jared Leto is also the front man for rock band Thirty Seconds To Mars. Their first album, self-titled, debuted in 2002 featuring a post-grunge sound reminiscent of Chevelle or Incubus. 30STM returned three years later with A Beautiful Lie. The band toured solidly for 8 months straight in 2005 opening for bands like Audioslave, The Used, and My Chemical Romance. Thirty Seconds to Mars also features Leto's brother and drummer Shannon, guitarist Tomo Milicevic and bassist Matt Wachter.

What: Due to an unfortunate accident this morning, Thirty Seconds To Mars will have to reschedule the first two dates on their tour - Salt Lake City, UT on March 4, and Denver, CO March 5. Bassist, Matthew Walter Wachter cut his finger to the bone and after a visit to the hospital will need some extra time to heal before hitting the road.

On a side note, Jared Leto recently finished shooting the film "Chapter 27" and has started a fast to help him lose the 62 lbs he gained for the role. While the rest of the band was rehearsing, resting, and preparing for their tour - "Forever Night Never Day", Jared was force feeding himself and transforming into Mark David Chapman, John Lennon's killer.

When: March 4-5 of the "Forever Night Never Day" tour have been cancelled. Head over here for rescheduling info.
