MARDUK - Athens Gig Cancellation Explained
January 3, 2008, 16 years ago
MARDUK's booking agent, Massive Music, have issued the following:
"We regret to inform you about a cancelled gig in Athens (Greece), scheduled for January 15th, right after a few shows in Turkey.Says Massive Music's Mariusz Kmiolek, "Looking for a ferry connection between Turkey and Greece we realized after summer season there're no direct connections and the other ones are not so reliable. An agent who was searching for some other solutions said the only thing we can do is to book tickets for a connection via Chios Island, but it also might be cancelled in the last minute due to changeable weather conditions. A charter flight from Turkey to Greece is too much expensive. Covering this distance by car could take 2 days. Those, so to speak "objective factors" forced us to move Athenian gig to Alexandroupolis. We are really sorry for this unforeseen change. Our deepest apologies to all the fans in Athens and Sold Out Promotion agency. We are really looking forward to make this possible in the future."
The gig has been moved to Alexandroupolis, Domus Bar. It's promoted by Zion Records (thank you so much for your invaluable help!).
The other gigs of The Vanitas Tour 2008 are according to plan. For this tour Marduk will be teaming up with IN BATTLE, ZONARIA and ARTISIAN. The tour starts on January 5 in Zilina (Slovakia), ends on January 26th in Berlin (Germany)."
