KEANE'S CHAPLIN IN REHAB: A planned U.S. tour by Keane has been postponed while singer Tom Chaplin is being treated for drug and alcohol addiction, the British band said Tuesday.

In a statement posted on the band's Web site, Chaplin, 27, said he was ``having to deal with an increasing problem with drink and drugs, and the time has come to get the professional help I need to sort myself out.''

The tour had been due to start in Chicago on Sept. 7. ``I feel desperately disappointed to be letting down our fans, but I want to get myself right now so that I can be back on the road for the rest of the year,'' Chaplin said. The trio released their melodic debut album, ``Hopes and Fears,'' in 2004. Their second album, ``Under the Iron Sea,'' entered the British album charts at No. 1 when it was released in June.
