Slayer Suing Secret Solstice Music Festival

Slayer are suing the organizers of Iceland’s Secret Solstice music festival, according to RÚV (the Icelandic National Broadcasting Service).

The band, who appeared at the festival in June of 2018, claim they’re owed $130,000 (roughly 16 million Icelandic Króna):

“Slayer’s lawyer, Jón Gunnar Ásbjörnsson, wrote a letter to the city on the matter, stating, among other things, that in addition to having not paid the aforementioned claim, the representatives of the festival have retained 20 percent of Slayer’s income to pay withholding tax to the tax authorities.”
