Wednesday, August 25, 2010



The planned for Sunday appearance by Sizzla unfortunately had to be canceled for security reasons. Groups from the radical left spectrum of risk with the application of several demonstrations in the immediate vicinity of the festival site, the security of the event. In addition, the festival boycott of Alliance 90/The Greens, and their mention of possible unrest a peaceful and orderly conduct in question. In particular, the imminent deployment of groupings to the left-wing spectrum are assigned, such as the "Alliance Rabatz," the autonomous networking Upper Bavaria / Salzburg / Tyrol, the authorities and make our biggest worry. The orderly and peaceful conduct of the festival seems in danger if we perform the scheduled appearance of like Sizzla.We are concerned with nothing less than the physical safety of festival visitors, the implementation of a concert by possible attacks by the protesters can not be guaranteed.
This uncertainty has given us, though we have entered sustained for artistic freedom and against censorship, ultimately persuaded to cancel the concert. We would however like to emphasize that artists like Sizzla a platform should be given within the existing constitutional principles to represent their music.
The replacement for Sizzla will soon be announced here.
