MOONSPELL Explain Belarus Gig Cancellation
April 25, 2009, 15 years ago
Portugal's MOONSPELL have issued the following message:
"Dear Belarus fans,We are extremely disappointed by the fact we had to cancel the shows. The reasons on both Neopolis and COF site is accurate but Moonspell might add that the bands' buses entered Belarus territory and were meeting for possible solutions for the day. On the event that the truck with ALL of our tour equipment was held due to a bureaucratic detail in the border made all our efforts worthless.
We have planned carefully this trip with the promoter, with the embassies and were caught off guard by an excessive zeal from the border staff.
Goes without saying that all the bands were eagerly anticipating the show as it was a premiere for everyone. We can assure you we are doing our best to reschedule the show and we are pretty sure we will do so up to the end of the year, the sooner, the better, though no specific date can be advanced so far.
Thanks for your comprehension, we understand and share the frustration but look forward to make it up for you on a near future.
Under a fullmoon madness!"
