Gallows Banned By Disney!
Published Monday, 21st January, 2008 at 5:30 PM
Brit-punks Gallows are currently touring America as we speak, but the band have been banned from playing one show this week, by owners Disney.
Tomorrow (Tuesday 22nd of January), the band were supposed to be supporting Social Distortion at the House of Blues venue at Disneyland in Anaheim, Orange County.
However, it seems Disney take offence to the lyrics of Gallows' acclaimed debut album Orchestra Of Wolves, meaning Frank Carter and friends have been removed from the line-up. Social Distortion are still playing.
Speaking of the incident, guitarist Laurant Barnard says: "I think Mickey Mouse got jealous that Minnie Mouse had Gallows posters on her wall. That kind of stuff happens a lot. I recommend Mickey shows Minnie some more attention, you know, take her out and make her feel special. Cartoon mice need love too."
UK fans (well those based in London) will now get two extra chances to catch the band live on home turf, as the lads will be playing at the 100 Club on March 3rd and 4th. Set Your Goals support on the first night, but the second night guests have yet to be confirmed.
Don't forget that February will see Gallows embarking on a nationwide tour (dates below), as well as releasing a 7" of Just Because You Sleep Next To Me Doesn't Mean You're Safe on the 25th. The Live At The 100 Club CD / DVD then follows on March 3rd.

15th - Norwich, UEA
