Lyapises’ concert in Mahilyou is not cancelled but roof may leak

The concert of “Lyapis Trubetskoi” appointed for March 20 in Mahilyou has not been cancelled. However, the organizers have been warned that the roof may leak … on the day of the performance.

"There was preliminary information about the authorities’ pressure. The local promoter informed us yesterday evening that he had received a phone call from the club and had been informed that the concert had not been cancelled but the roof was likely to leak on the day of the concert”, - said the Lyapises’ press secretary, Zmitser Bezrakavainy, to Euroradio.

Interestingly, according to the weather forecast, snow is expected in Mahilyou on the day. The temperature will be about +1 degrees Celsius.

Zmіtser Bezkaravainy: "Even if they say that there will not be any concerts we will not cancel them! The band supports the idea because it is absurd. Let those who need it cancel the concerts”.

More than 800 tickets to the concert in Mahilyou have already been sold. C.f.: 168 tickets to the cancelled Lyapises’ concert in Homel have been returned to fans. The concert in Minsk “Reactor” that will take place on April 1 is also in for cancellation. All the tickets have been sold out. According to Zmitser, nobody knows for sure.

Zmіtser Bezkaravainy: "We know about Neuro Dubel’s problem: on the one hand, their concert has been cancelled, but on the other hand, the club says that it will take place. Maybe the situation will become clear when we see how Neuro Dubel’s situation will develop. If Neuro Dubel’s concert takes place in “Reactor” on March 24, chances are the Lyapises’ concert will also be given on April 1”.

Let us remind you that “Lyapis Trubetskoi”’s concert has to take place in the “Liga” club on March 20. However, the musicians have been having problems with concerts since “the black list of cultural workers” appeared on the Internet. The band’s concert in Homel has been cancelled due to fire safety problems and a great number of sold tickets. Besides the Lyapises, the concerts of “Krambambulya” and Zmitser Vaitsyushkevich have also been cancelled, the band’s tribute concert is also open to question.
