ENSIFERUM - Advertised No Mercy Tour Dates Dismissed As Fake; Band Issues Statement
March 21, 2007, 17 years ago
ENSIFERUM have issued the following message to their fans:
"Yesterday (March 20th) we received information that an European touring agency is still advertising their No Mercy Tour with Ensiferum marked as one of the performers.The TRUTH however is that Ensiferum is NOT performing on the No Mercy Tour.
When this agency first started advertising this tour, and us as one of the performers, they had not even asked us to take part in the tour. When we asked them what this advertising was all about, they then asked us for the tour but we could obviously not take part in it because we had already made other performing commitments for the same dates. For example Ensiferum will NOT play at the 013 in Tilburg, the Netherlands. In the Netherlands we are only playing at Rijssen and Zaandam.
IF YOU WANT TO SEE ENSIFERUM LIVE, DO NOT BUY TICKETS TO THE NO MERCY TOUR, ENSIFERUM IS NOT TAKING PART OR PLAYING ON THAT TOUR.
To all Ensiferum fans who've bought a ticket to the No Mercy Tour, we recommend you to return your tickets immediately and ask for a refund. This is not a case of this agency just changing the lineup in the middle of the No Mercy Tour. Instead this is this the agency advertising bands that they never even had a performance contract or agreement with.
To see what Ensiferum's REAL, CONFIRMED GIGS are, please go and see the Tour Info section on our website www.ensiferum.com or follow ICS International's gig announcements in Metal Hammer Germany."
