Sepultura Cancels Slovenia Show

Sepultura has issued the following statement about canceling their show tonight in Slovenia:

"We are very sorry to inform that the Sepultura concert in Ljubljana, Slovenia, on February 17th, was canceled. The local promoter informed us by e-mail two days ago that the venue would change for this show, and when the band and crew arrived in Slovenia to check the venue, no specs on the rider were respected, and that made the show impossible to be made. The band's crew did all they could, but it is simply impossible.

"If you are from Ljubljana, you know the Orto Club, which is in fact a very nice Club, but the technical specs of the venue are not even close to what the band needs to do a show.

"Unfortunately we depend on local people to make things done, but when they do not do their job properly we have to suffer consequences. We are all very sorry and we hope to come back in our European Tour and bring this show back to Slovenia, as we always do every tour."
