Bob Vylan No Longer Supporting Gogol Bordello on Tour Dates
The move comes after a firestorm sparked by Bob Vylan’s West Holts Stage performance at Glastonbury in June.
In the aftermath of this event, Bob Vylan will no longer be joining Gogol Bordello on their upcoming European tour. Both acts confirmed this decision on Monday (July 14), citing “logistical complications” as the official reason for their departure.
The controversy surrounding Bob Vylan’s performance at Glastonbury has led to significant fallout, including being removed from the Manchester Radar Festival lineup and having their U.S. visas revoked, reportedly parting ways with their agents.
However, despite the backlash, Bob Vylan has not been without support. Public Enemy’s Chuck D voiced solidarity with the duo, stating that they stand by them. Additionally, Massive Attack has come out in support of Bob Vylan, urging the media to focus on “what is happening daily to the people of Gaza.”
The controversy surrounding Glastonbury sparked when Bob Vylan expressed their support for Palestine and condemned Israel during their performance, leading the crowd in a chant calling for “death to the IDF.”
