Hallo Freunde,
leider haben wir für KEEP IT TRUE im April 2023 zwei Absagen, können aber umgehend Ersatz präsentieren.
Leider müssen SANCTUARY ihren Auftritt am KIT 2023 absagen, weil die Tochter von Originalgitarrist Lenny Rutledge kürzlich verstorben ist und Lenny sich natürlich erst mal um die Familie und sich selber kümmern muss. Wir möchten Lenny und seiner Familie unser tiefstes Beileid aussprechen. Hier der offizielle Text, den wir vom Management erhalten haben.
“The daughter of Lenny Rutledge has recently passed away, and his attention and focus need to be with his family during this difficult time. Due to this unfortunate news, Sanctuary is canceling their scheduled appearance at KIT 2023. We apologize for any inconvenience that this has caused for the festival and our fans. We appreciate your understanding during this time.” – Sanctuary management
Als Ersatz können wir euch feinsten US Melodic Metal in Form von FIFTH ANGEL präsentieren. Die Band wird im Mai ihr neues Album veröffentlichen und hat sich kurzfristig bereit erklärt für Sanctuary einzuspringen.
Weiterhin müssen leider auch CRUSH aufgrund von schweren gesundheitlichen Problemen eines Bandmitglieds absagen. Wir senden unsere Genesungswünsche nach Griechenland und hoffen, die Show eines Tages nachholen zu können.
Als Ersatz wird die schwedische Kult Thrash Band MEZZROW ihre allererste Deutschland Show spielen und zudem ihr Comeback Album „Summon Thy Demons“ nach 30 Jahren bei Fireflash Records exakt am KIT Wochenende veröffentlichen.
Nur nochmal zur Bestätigung. Die gekauften Hard Tickets für den Freitag und Samstag von 2019/2020 behalten natürlich Ihre Gültigkeit, natürlich auch die zusätzlich erworbenen Tickets für den Donnerstag.
90% der Karten für den KIT Donnerstag sind verkauft, hier findet ihr die Restkarten, der Rest des Festivals ist restlos ausverkauft:
