In February 2024, the organizers announced that one of the stars of the festival would be the New York hardcore legend Sick Of It All. The group was to play on the Main Stage for the 30th edition of the event, which delighted festival goers.
Sick Of It All cancels concert at Pol’and’Rock. Vocalist diagnosed with cancer
Hundreds of reactions and comments appeared under the post. Some even declared that they would only attend the event because of the stars’ performance. Unfortunately, the band’s concert plans fell through. At the end of June, Sick Of It All announced that it was canceling its European tour due to the illness of the band’s vocalist Lou Koller. The artist was diagnosed with esophageal cancer and instead of concerts, the musician plans to start treatment.
The cancelled concerts also included the 30th edition of Pol’and”Rock. Polish fans of Sick Of It All were devastated by the news of the change in concert plans, and above all, about the illness of their idol. However, the organizers of Pol’and’Rock made every effort to find a satisfactory replacement for the stars.
Who will play on Pol’and”Rock instead of Sick Of It All?
“We were looking for a worthy replacement and here it is!” – we read in the statement. Instead of Sick Of It All on the Main Stage of Pol’and”Rock, Venom Inc. will soon play. “Prepare yourselves for a true celebration of heavy sounds!” – emphasize the event organizers.
The band is a British band formed in 2015 by musicians from the legendary Venom, pioneers of black metal. In addition to songs from their parent band, the musicians also play their own songs. The presence of the metalheads on the main stage of the event pleased the festival goers. “For me it’s a bomb”, “Juras, thanks”, “super”, “kisiel w gaciach”, “ulala” – enthusiastic comments were showered. Although there were also skeptics. There were voices on the internet that in order for the replacement of Sick Of It All to be “worthy”, someone performing the same genre should play in the band’s place. However, finding a big foreign star just a few weeks before the start of the event is a very big challenge.
