Philadelphias hardcore institution Paint It Black has engaged in some high level punk rock philosophy regarding their recently canceled show. Originally, the band was scheduled to play a show at The University of Delaware on November 6. However, according to an e-mail from the schools ticketing system, Paint it Black pulled out from the show on September 11, 2014. (Laura Stevenson and Cayetana remain on the bill). Today, Paint It Black issued a statement explaining their refusal to do the show. They also announced a replacement show. According to the band, the band stated that when they agreed to play the show, they were under the belief that all the details regarding the show had been agreed upon. However, some time after the show was arranged and plane tickets were purchased, the band states that they were informed that there would be barricades at the show. Thus, the band, on or around September 11, informed the venue that they would not play the show due to the barricades. Instead, tomorrow night, October 30, the band will be playing a free, public show in a non-traditional venue (or perhaps outside?). The band states that due to the nature of the show, they will announce more details about the where and when of the show on the day of the show.
