APOCALYPTICA: Minsk show cancelled

APOCALYPTICA has issued the following update:

"Due to problems in advancing the show we unfortunately had to decide to cancel this show.

The band is very sad as this would have been the first time to play in Belarus for them. But the risk of flying the entire crew, the full stage set up and the band to Belarus and then not been able to play a show (with fans waiting at the concert venue) was too high.

We hope to be able to have an Apocalyptica concert in Belarus during the next touring cycle."
