    As an experience. I'd rather see them on a festival. You get to see more bands, and meet up with all kinds of people. My best memories are from attending festivals.

    Hi guys,

    i don't know if you would ever read this but i feel i have to write what i think: i was in Mestre last night and just came back at home after hours and hours of driving out of that hell.
    You can't even imagine how much i love you and your music (i'll be in London and Dusseldorf in spite of everything, catching plane for the 1st time in my life only to come and see you...)

    BUT

    in the name of this love and passion, i wanna ask you PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE...

    DON'T PLAY FESTIVALS ANYMORE!

    DON'T get involved in something set up only to make money and speculate on people's passion. Do your own tours, play shows everywhere you want...we'll be as always in the 1st row enjoying the show, but PLEASE DON'T PLAY FESTIVALS: they've shown in too many occasions they can't absolutely guarantee people's safety that you always proved to care so much. Yesterday in Mestre almost ALL structures collapsed in less than 10 minutes on our heads...this is UNACCEPTABLE and UNJUSTIFIABLE.
    We were lucky enough to came back home safe, but maybe next time someone else couldn't be as fortunate.

    I really hope you'll read and take in consideration my "request" that - i assure you - reflects a lot of people's thought.
    I'm sure you love us as much as we love you so PLEASE don't play festivals anymore.


    With love,

    Paolo
