Ty Stranglehold User Info... | I know that they were only allowed into Vancouver if they left their gear and merch behind. I guess they were less forgiving out East. I've heard(from a reliable source) that the border was waiting for them. The guitarist from Total Chaos said that they were turned away before he even got his passport out. When they went into the office, they had pictures of them up on the wall. The report on Global news was entertaining. "A riot broke out after punk bands cancelled their show." Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that they had nothing to do with cancelling it. - Wed, 15 Oct 2003 6:36am | ||
KnifeGhost User Info... | The band had nothing to do with it and the club had nothing to do with it.... There's talk the promoters weren't entirely honest with the club owner about the likelihood of the bands making it across the border....... Why are bands getting the fucking gestapo treatment? It's bullshit....... - Wed, 15 Oct 2003 8:05am | ||

Shawn User Info... | DUI? I know thats why all of the misfits couldn't come here. - Wed, 15 Oct 2003 3:45pm | ||
Zippgunn User Info... | Picture in your mind: the Exploited trying to sneak over the border somwhere back east complete with all their merch and wearing big mohawks brandishing UK passports etc. after already having had problems at the BC/Washington border. Now picture the typical Exploited fan after finding out that their heroes aren't going to play the gig after all. This person probably looks like they stepped out of a 20 year old time warp. Make sure this person is blind staggering drunk. Could there be any other result? - Thu, 16 Oct 2003 7:41am | ||
Mr User Info... | I wonder if they had a work visa, that would explain having to leave the merch & gear behind. - Thu, 16 Oct 2003 8:32am | ||

Masturbating The War God User Info... | Whauahahaha, nice one Mike. Rioters piss me off, the cars and buisnesses that they destroyed must have been the ones who stoped the band at the border, why else would you do that. Stupid fuckers. - Thu, 16 Oct 2003 11:12am | ||
