In Perm, the Michurin club refused to provide a venue for IC3PEAK to perform today, November 27th. This happened after the organizer was called to the police, Pavel Chikov, chairman of the Agora International Human Rights Group, said on his telegram channel.
He added that the organizers are trying to find an alternative venue for the concert. Mediazona, citing Oleg Mitrofanov , writes that the organizer of the concert, David Shelter, was called to the police.
On November 26, it became known that the head of the administration of the Leninsky district of Perm, Alexander Kozenkov, strongly recommended that the organizers of the IC3PEAK concert cancel the event due to the "suicidal orientation" of the group's lyrics. After that, the performance was moved from the Cape Town Concert Bar to the Michurin Club.
Earlier, due to pressure from the security forces, IC3PEAK had to change three venues for a concert in Kazan.
Corrected: earlier it was reported that the mayor of Perm Dmitry Samoilov recommended canceling the IC3PEAK concert.
