Leader of the Ukrainian group "Vpershe Chuyu" Grigory Vagapov in the summer of 2014 planned a performance at a concert in Siberia.
The musicians accepted the invitation to the "Full Gas" motor festival in the Russian city of Kemerovo.
However, on July 3, 2014 they received an official letter from the authorities of Kemerovo, where it was noted that the speech of the leader "Vpershe smuyu" was banned.
The group director made an official request to the organizers of the festival. She asked me to forward the letter to her to find out what was wrong.
But the official document on the prohibition of performances was not received because of fear of management of the festival before the authorities.
"Vpery I feel" they learned that they are not allowed to speak because of the video that appeared on the air of "1 + 1" on December 1, 2013. Then, on the song "Do not Treb", the TV crews assembled Maidan shots and beat up students. The authorities of this city video seemed provocative. Although there is not a single word about the Maidan on the footage.
