ZITAT
Dear Everyone,
We wanted to let you all know, we had one of the worst experiences of our 10
year musical career on Saturday night, we were physically violated and dragged
off stage by security, Ortiz Padillo Promoters and commercial sponsors at
Oxigena Festival, near Cordova, in Southern Spain. We were denied our right to
perform at the festival as contracted and our fees were not honoured. It was
clear that the public attendance of the festival was extremely low and the
promoters wouldn´t allow us to play for this reason, so they could claim
insurance on the premise, of a cancelled headlining act. The promoters and
Sponsors falsely claimed that “the band is late" as we entered the stage at
1.25am, 5 minutes prior to the planned stage time of 1.30am as contracted.
Photo documentation has been taken away from us, our camera was smashed and
memory card stolen.
We want to expose these criminal acts and the organisations responsible for
abusing and robing artists through their business practices and the unethical
networks of festivals and concert promoters. It´s clearly a case of abuse
against women, destruction of personal property, breach of contract and
assault.
We´re pretty freaked out & scared by what we experienced. It would be really
good to have your support in any way, the organizers were trying to make quick
cash from the festival. Look out for scammers that are abusing musicians and
swindling young people looking to have a fun evening.
KEEP MUSIC ABOUT ART & CULTURE & A WILD FUN TIME TO BE TOGETHER & NOT A MEANS
FOR HORRIBLE MEN TO MAKE PILES MONEY.
