Say it ain't so! Nearly a week before London's favorite local band were to grace Los Angeles, I got wind that something had gone terribly awry. Ticketweb refunded me the cost of the ticket and scoping out their facebook page confirmed the sad news.
Alas visa issues are a constant problem for smaller bands looking to break any shore. One would assume Radiohead has no problems crossing ponds, but the government is stingy on both ends and full of bureaucratic bullshit.
I know Elizabeth was looking forward to making it back out to Cali and with the cancelation of the entire West Coast and South West I can only shake my fist bitterly at the East Coast. The band says they are trying to reschedule and I hope all goes well because they deserve all the success they can get. When they make it back to California everyone will be better for it.
