Guthrie Govan: Air Berlin stop Aristocrats shows in Gran Canaria


No amount of praying or paying could stop this unfortunate event.

We are very sorry to announce that we are unable to perform our show tonight in Gran Canaria due to an unforeseeable circumstance with Air Berlin, whose airline we were due to fly today. We were informed upon arrival at the airport that, regardless of how much money we were prepared to pay - even the full cost of another ticket - that Guthrie's prototype, currently-one-of-a-kind Charvel guitar would need to be checked as regular baggage, even though it was in a soft case that would easily fit into any overhead compartment or airplane coat closet. This has never happened to us before, and while we very much wanted to play in Gran Canaria, we simply could not risk Guthrie's guitar being damaged and affecting the remainder of the tour.

We look forward to rescheduling this date on our next European tour, and again we apologize to our fans and everyone who worked hard to put on this show in Gran Canaria.

Aside from this unfortunate turn of events, we're having a stellar time touring Europe. Our Benelux shows were all great, and we're very much looking forward to playing in Germany, Poland and Greece. Thanks so much to all the fans who've come out so far, and stay tuned for news on the release date of the live CD/DVD **very** soon.
