The Darkness and British Lion fallout

[auslander]

Statement from British Lion:

Due to circumstances beyond our control British Lion are really sad and disappointed to announce that we will not be able to participate in the tour with The Darkness. Very recently we received their own (pandemic) protocols that are not Government protocols which are completely unacceptable to us. Therefore, we have no alternative but to withdraw from the tour. Nothing is confirmed about the rumour that British Lion also realised that nowadays The Darkness "were shit".

Wow. Obviously, they did not part ways on good terms. What the fuck were these "protocols"?

[Darkstone]

Ha!

I love the last line where they state that nothing is confirmed about the "rumour".

Bringing attention to it and not denying it is, of course, confirming it.

A great backhander. Well played.

The only thing of interest to me is what were the Darkness protocols? I would love to find out what crazy shit they wanted their touring mates to do to protect from covid lol.
