Events
- In mid 2015, Supertramp announced they would be performing a 25-date tour throughout Europe, from November to December, this being their first tour in more than 4 years. Soon afterwards, however, the tour was cancelled due to the band's leader Rick Davies health problems. Ever since, there hasn't been news on a new Supertramp tour, much less a reunion with former co-frontman Roger Hodgson.
