Participants of the legendary German band Scooter admitted that they did not even realize that their future performance in the Crimea was getting involved in a political conflict.
This is the leader of the team HI Pix Baxter told the publication Bild. The singer stressed that he "goes to the Crimea not to engage in politics there".
"We go to the Crimea not to engage in politics there, but because we have fans there. We have something to show them, "Baxter said..
In turn, the manager of Scooter noted that the band's music is "completely apolitical".
"We did not even know that we were getting involved in a political conflict. Our music is completely apolitical, and we want to be on the sidelines of political issues.
We have visited Ukraine and Russia since 1995, and there are many fans who are looking forward to Scooter, "said the manager..
Recall that the performance of Scooter on the territory of the occupied Crimea, namely in Balaklava, is scheduled for August 4.
It is interesting that on the official website of Scooter a concert on the peninsula is specified, but the collective intentionally did not sign the country.
"We did it on purpose. We wanted to maintain neutrality, "- commented the manager of the group.
