Ugh. We hate hearing about these sorts of things – it really does take a bold, depraved person to break into anyone’s vehicle and steal their belongings, but even moreso when the target is a touring band. Danish progressive metalcore band Ghost Iris, who just released a new record, Blind World, had their touring vehicle robbed while on tour in Italy. GHost Iris aren’t going to let this event stop them from playing their next show in Vicenza, though! You can find the band’s new album, as well as an official statement from the band, below – they definitely need your support right now, whether it’s in the form of buying merch, a CD, or even throwing them your leftover money via Paypal, the band will surely appreciate anything you can do. Get on it!
Dear friends. Today (March 26, 2017) our van was broken into and robbed in broad daylight, while on tour in Italy. We lost a lot of expensive equipment such as: in-ear systems, instruments, stage lights, wireless systems, amps and flight cases loaded with cables, effect pedals etc. and personal belongings of sentimental value. Any single thing you can contribute with or donate, will help us more than you can imagine. Go to the link below and donate what you can, or go buy some merch from our webstore.
Despite the circumstances, the show in Vicenza, Italy tonight is still on! Local bands will lend us most of the equipment that we need, in order to play the show and not let you guys down.
Our next tour is in 2 weeks, and we’ll need all the help that we can get, to collect enough money for new equipment, in order to do the tour.
PLEASE SHARE, it really helps!
Thank you,
GHOST IRIS
