www.vnvnation.deSerbia and Croatia shows postponed:
We were extremely sorry to have had to postpone the shows in Belgrade and Zagreb. At the Croatian border, the Customs officials refused us entry, when coming in from Slovenia. In their opinion, our musical equipment was not our personal equipment (yes it is, who else should it belong to?) and thus we would need special export documentation or pay a large amount of money. Staff at the border were being very tough with cars coming through, that morning, and we suspect it was a question of being there at the wrong time. We have been told by all the promoters we know in both countries that, something like this happens very rarely with bands coming into Croatia or Serbia. The only suggestion from Croatian Customs was that we drive around Croatia and enter Serbia through Hungary, a distance of 800km. This would not have guaranteed entry nor would it have solved the problem of getting back through Croatia. Had we driven around, we wouldn't have made it in time for the Belgrade show anyway and there was a risk that it would affect all the following days. We waited in Slovenia while the promoter in Zagreb and our Tour Manager worked all day trying to find a solution to get us through. Unfortunately, this didn't work out, though the Zagreb promoter deserves a medal for the long hours he spent at the border, as well as on the phone, trying to make it happen.
We have spoken with both promoters about rescheduling the shows and are working on suitable dates.
Again, our sincerest apologies to anyone affected.
regards, Ronan and Mark
