tour cancelled

"No fences, no borders. Free movement for all. Fuck the border."

Fuck, here we are, back home again... After having played a show in Budapest, and driving countless hours and even more countless kilometers...
We were forced to make a u-turn at the Ukrainian border, after the customs officers shot us out the border because we didn't have the original technical passport of the van... we only had a copy of it. The thing is that this original document is never delivered when you rent a car in any car rental shop in France; nonetheless explaining that to the only customs officer who was speaking English wasn't any help, as she was only repeating: "you can't go in without the original document", whatever I was saying to explain the tricky situation we were in.

We really tried to get into Ukraine but as they registered the number of our license plate in their computer, and took all the infos about us from our passports and made an official document of us being unwanted in their country, there was no way we could legally cross the border...
Someone once said "I fought the law and the law won", guess that couldn't be any more true than now... We really tried our best to get into Ukraine but we couldn't get a chance, Fuck!!!
We are deeply sorry we had to cancel the tour, we really apologize to everyone who booked shows for us, to all the people who wanted to come to the show, we really want to come back as soon as possible and we'll do our best to make it happen a.s.a.p.

We'd like to say thanks a lot to Daniel, Max and Sveta and all the promoters in all the different cities, thank you.
We'll come back as soon as possible

See you all, fuck the borders!
