Für das erste Pop-Punk-Festival Deutschlands und der Schweiz waren REAL FRIENDS als festes Zugpferd mit eingeplant. Leider musste die Band ihren Auftritt bei allen vier Terminen des Festivals aus gesundheitlichen Gründen absagen. Die Veranstalter kündigten an, demnächst einen adäquaten Ersatz zu präsentieren. Lest hier das Statement der Band zur Absage:
"Hello everybody, Dan here. I wanted to let you all know that REAL FRIENDS will be canceling our upcoming international appearances in Australia, Europe, and the UK. This has come recommended by both the band and my psychiatrist so I can have time to continue learning to live and deal with my diagnosis of bipolar disorder. Since coming home from recording, I am sober, on new medication, and undergoing an intensive outpatient group therapy program per the recommendation of my therapist. I am continuing to better myself so that Warped Tour this summer will be a fresh start for not only me, but for REAL FRIENDS as a whole. We all want to be the best possible versions of ourselves as individuals and in turn be the best possible version of REAL FRIENDS. We appreciate your support and understanding, and we want to note that this conversation about mental health will continue, but for now I'll be continuing my treatment, and we'll make Warped Tour something so special for you all. Thank you all for your love and support."
