"Dear Holy Moses Fans,We got the information that the promoter of the Unholy Festival Ostrava has broken the terms of the contract so we have had no choice and we had to cancel the show and we told him to stop using the Holy Moses name on his website etc. No deal was ever finalized for the band to play at the festival. Holy Moses tried for a long time to negotiate with the promoters to make the festival appearance happen, but negotiations went nowhere due to a lack of communication from the promoters. No deal was ever settled, and Holy Moses will therefore NOT appear at the festival. We apologise for any disappointment and Holy Moses fans who have bought festival tickets to see Holy Moses should approach the promoter to request a refund of their ticket price, if they do not wish to attend the festival. We talked to our friends from other bands which should headline the festival, and we all decided to cancel our shows at the Unholy Festival.
We want to thank all the fans and other bands, bookers and managements, who take care of us, in all this matters."
