FROM EXODUS:
A personal account below from Jack Gibson about tonight's show cancellation. There will be an official statement from the band regarding the unfortunate situation coming shortly: our apologies to all.
"Well it has happened again! Another Brazilian promoter gets us all the way to Fortaleza and didn't have the money to pay!! Why do you guys do this?? We are sorry to our fans in Fortaleza. We tried everything to play. We are now on the way to the next show in Manaus. It sucks because the fans down here are our favorite fans in the world and they have to deal with this. We look like the assholes. We are sorry Fortaleza." - Jack Gibson
