Mechanical Necrosis Tour Disrupted by Sudden Show Cancellation in Rapid City - @thebeast

The Mechanical Necrosis Tour, featuring the bands Gorgatron , Casket Robbery , and Voraath , hit an unexpected snag on June 20th when their scheduled show in Rapid City, South Dakota, was abruptly canceled by the promoter, Kipple City Productions.

The cancellation occurred due to a misunderstanding regarding the bands' stage plot and input list, which the promoter erroneously interpreted as a demand for additional gear. This miscommunication led to Kipple City Productions canceling the concert without attempting to clarify the issue with the bands or their agents, despite the bands driving eight hours to reach Rapid City. Understandably, the situation has left the bands and their fans frustrated and disappointed.

Adding fuel to the fire, Kipple City Productions took to social media to publicly denounce the bands, their booking agents, and the entire metal genre in an extreme and out-of-touch manner. The promoter's posts quickly garnered widespread backlash from artists across various genres and music fans alike, who condemned his behavior and rallied in support of the bands.

Gorgatron addressed the incident in a social media post, expressing gratitude for the support they received: "Thanks to everyone for the overwhelming support and understanding for today’s headache/cancellation with a promoter that decided to not communicate a misunderstanding and completely jumped the shark. ONWARD!!!!"

The incident has sparked a broader conversation about the importance of clear communication and mutual respect in the music industry. It also highlights the strong sense of community within the metal music scene, as fans and fellow artists have shown their solidarity with Gorgatron, Casket Robbery, and Voraath.

Despite this setback, the bands remain undeterred and are committed to continuing their tour with the same energy and passion that has defined their performances so far. The outpouring of support from the music community serves as a testament to the resilience and unity of the metal genre, proving that not even a canceled show can dampen their spirits.

For fans eager to catch the Mechanical Necrosis Tour, keep an eye on the bands' social media channels for updates on upcoming shows and any potential rescheduling of the Rapid City performance. The tour rolls on, stronger than ever, embodying the true spirit of metal.
