Bez Is Refused A US Visa

Bez has been refused a visa to enter the US according to officials, meaning the dancer won't be able to perform with his band Happy Mondays in America this weekend as part of Coachella.

The Mondays are set to perform their first Stateside show in 15 years this Sunday April 29th. A statement for the band has now been issued, saying:

"Due to tightening immigration and working visa legislation, Bez was not, unfortunately, able to secure a visa to perform at Coachella this weekend."

"Happy Mondays apologies to all their US fans that they will not, on this occasion, be able to enjoy the spectacle of Bez shaking his stuff for them at Coachella."

The next time Bez performs with the Madchester legends, will be on their May UK tour and you can find those dates here.
