I know people in a few of the bands on HR and I'm not surprised by their unequivocal response.
There are bigger issues right now of course but I'm gutted for Svalbard and Palm Reader with new albums coming. I've got about 70 quid's worth of PR preorder stuff tied up and I won't be the only one.
How they unravel that with a month to go I've no idea.
Holy Roar is done. Alex now says he's "resigned" from his businesses, whatever that means when it's his business. I hope Justine can front a new label because she's **** brilliant at it. Sammy would be as well, that would be something.
Anyway, I saw a tweet from one of the survivors who came forward. What she said just reaffirms that the response from the staff and the bands has been the right thing to do. There are people in some of those bands who wear this cause on their sleeves. They'll be devastated.
