De Oekraïense zwartgeblakerde deathmetalband 1914 heeft om voor de hand liggende redenen de komende tour geschrapt.
Op Facebook schrijft de band:
We think this is obvious but we had to reach out to our fans and supporters around the world with the official tour cancellation statement. With the fucking russian invasion to Ukraine it is impossible for us as the band to go and play abroad, not because of the travelling restrictions but because our place is here right now, with our kids, families, with Ukrainian people. We promise – when the war ends with the victory of Ukraine, when we banish last russian motherfucker from Ukrainian soil – we will again go and play a badass tour around Europe and will meet our friends and will drink the finest moonshine and will celebrate life once again! But for now we have a lot to do and our thoughts are here.
Glory to Ukraine!
Glory to Heroes!
Russian warship – go fuck yourself!
1914 zou ondermeer optreden op festival Pitfest in mei. De organisatie heeft laten weten een groot deel van de vergoeding die de band zou krijgen gewoon over te maken en geen vervanger op te roepen.
