Josh Freese, original member and drummer for A Perfect Circle, has said he won't be able to join APC on thier upcoming tour. He made this statement through his website explaining he has made a comitment to Weezer to play drums with them on their upcoming tour.

“I’m sad to report that I will be sitting out the ‘A Perfect Circle’ tour this summer. Maybe the hardest decision I’ve ever had to make professionally and it hasn’t been easy on me. I’ve been looking forward to APC reforming for years now and the timing just couldn’t have been worse. I’d already committed the time to Weezer and I am a man of my word. As much as I hate to have to miss the APC tour there wasn’t a whole lot I could do about it."

Jeff Friedl of Ashes Divide and Puscifer will fill in on drums for A Perfect Circle in the meantime.
