No Devotion cancel German show after Geoff Rickly “poisoned and robbed”
By Andy Malt | Published on Tuesday 29 September 2015
No Devotion were forced to cancel their show at last week’s Reeperbahn festival in Germany after frontman Geoff Rickly was “poisoned and robbed”.
Rickly explained to fans in an Instagram post: “Just a little note to say that I was poisoned and robbed (outside our Reeperbahn Festival venue on Friday) and spent the night in the hospital in Hamburg”.
He added that he is “recovering” and was well enough to play Sunday night’s show in Paris. The band began the UK leg of their European tour in Cambridge last night.
As previously reported, in something of a rough week last week, Rickly was also forced to dump his record label Collect’s financial backer, after it turned out he was a bit of an arse.
