Pantera Pulled From German Festivals

[hellfire]

Imagine spending all of your time petitioning to get bands thrown off festivals that you wouldn't attend if your life depended on it. Time well spent.

Bands could of been involved in the cancellation as well sure didn't Bolt Thrower and Napalm Death refuse to play a festival they were scheduled for a few years ago because Satanic Warmaster was part of the lineup and SW then eventually got the boot because of it. Mustaine also refused to play at a festival with Dissection because they offended his religious beliefs.

I have tickets for the Berlin indoor show so I really hope that doesn't get cancelled.

In defence of Bolt Thrower and ND they have been highly ideological bands since before I was listening to metal. It would surprise me if they did anything different. Not saying I agree with it, just understand why they would take that position.

I recall Napalm Death cancelling some fest when KPN/Peste Noire were announced for it, but don't remember this one involving Bolt Thrower. Must have a look see. I do also recall Glen Benton getting Tourniquet kicked from Milwaukee Metal Fest way, way back in the day too, because he refused to play with a Christian band Put me off checking out Deicide for years when I was only a wee spotty-faced teen

What was the Tommy Tiernan joke?
I read the taxi company pulled sponsorship from his tv show over something as well.
Is that the same issue?

I get that but no matter how ideological they are it doesn't give them the right to throw tantrums and have other bands removed from shows. If ND and BT had of cancelled themselves then fair enough they are perfectly entitled to do that.

Exactly it. If you don't want to play for retarded ideological reasons then pull out but don't get other bands kicked off.

Still haven't been able to find anything about ND or BT "versus" Satanic Warmaster, just ND pulling out of Blastfest 2017 over KPN. Which is probably what brought left activist attention to KPN being on the bill, who pressured to have KPN pulled, which they were. Don't know whether ND offered to play again then or not. But then the whole festival got cancelled due to low sales. So, similar-ish story to Steelfest 2022, except they refused to cancel any of the offending bands and (as far as I know) it went ahead.

[Pagan Saviour]

Yep, that one went ahead.

They brought in the big guns.

[Pagan Saviour]

Dreadful dreadful band. All Grohl is good for is name dropping

[Pain Medicine]

I'm reading that the Vienna gig was cancelled today as well, which was an indoor gig of their own, not a festival. Interesting to see if the European shows go ahead at all.

[Pagan Saviour]

Actually it'll be really interesting to see if Metallica drop them. It'll be truly game over then.

[open face surgery]

Given they themselves have a sketchy pic sieg heiling it'd be a cunt move.

This Pantera reunion was a farce since day one, and the farce continues...
