"While Whitesnake will no longer be on the tour, the Scorpions will be continuing on. We wish our good friends The Scorpions every success!"
SCORPIONS released a statement of their own(opens in new tab), saying, "We wanted to let you know that Whitesnake will no longer be joining us on our U.S. and Canadian Rock Believer tour.
