The DDT concert in Bryansk was canceled by personal order of Governor Nikolai Denin, says the leader of the group Yuri Shevchuk. Denin personally called the directors of local concert halls demanding to prevent DDT’s performance, according to Shevchuk’s appeal, published on his website. The group did not receive any official notifications of the reasons for the reasons for the abolition of the concert, Shevchuk emphasized.
The concert was scheduled for April 20 at the Friendship concert hall, it became known about its cancellation last weekend. “The concert was transferred to the city of Eagle, in the Mega Greenn complex, for the reason that the concert was banned in Bryansk,” the concert organizer Sergei Korostelev told Bryansk news for the fact that the performance in Bryansk was banned, thanks to the leadership of the region and the United Russia party. ” In Bryansk they will sell tickets for a concert and on April 20 they will be sent to an eagle special bus.
The Bryansk branch of "EP" said that they had nothing to do with the abolition of Shevchuk's concert.
Last year, Shevchuk’s concerts were canceled for political reasons in Kemerovo, Omsk and Tyumen. “In Tyumen, they did not find a hall for us, and in Omsk some minister of local importance forbade the concert halls to hold our desperate show,” Shevchuk said then.
A year ago, on the group’s website, in connection with the abolition of concerts, an announcement was posted: “Dear comrades! Concerts of the DDT group - a threat to your consciousness. Sleep calmly! We care about you. The feudal lords of the Russian Federation.”
