November 26, 2010, 13 years ago
LEAVES' EYES were scheduled to perform a one-off show in India on November 19th in Goa at the Indian Music Conference however the metal open air festival portion of the even was cancelled by local police.
An official statement from the band reads as follows:
"Dear fans and friends in India, we're deeply sorry that we were not able to perform at this year's Indian Music Conference at the Campal Ground in Panjim, Goa on Friday, November 19th. The day after our arrival in Goa, everything was successfully prepared, soundcheck was done (see picture at the left) and we were more than ready to go on stage and play our music to our Indian fans for the very first time in the band's history. As we were about to leave the hotel to the festival area for the show, we were informed that the festival had been cancelled by the local authorities. We were absolutely shocked to hear that since we were so excited and so much looking forward to play in India. This whole cancellation was neither a decision by Leaves Eyes nor Spotlight Events! Now, we are planning to return to India in 2011 to finally get to play for our fans. Please, stay tuned!"
