Pressed about why KROKUS has toured America so typically over the course of the ultimate 20 years, Marc talked about: “Successfully, it begins with the work permits. And they also worth money. Then the tax. Then the reserving fees, the percentages, the renting out of package, buses, resorts and all of the items. So within the occasion you’ve gotta do a membership tour, you’ll be capable of’t even pay for all that. We’ve not been there for a protracted whereas, so we don’t anticipate to return again over and do a headliner tour in stadiums; we’re faraway from that when extra. Because of inside the meantime, there’s a wide range of water under the bridge. And that’s the way it’s. The standing sinks because of there isn’t any longer promoters who think about that you simply simply’re gonna carry inside the a reimbursement for that. I suppose that’s the approach during which it’s. It is sort of a vicious circle. You might want to come over sooner or later and get the ball rolling as soon as extra after which come once more the following 12 months and the following 12 months to achieve the standing that you simply’re used to. And it’s a should to moreover launch a model new album to accompany that. And the model new album just isn’t adequate. Albums don’t promote anymore. There’s Spotify — all these parasites spherical — streaming, which don’t offer you your money’s worth.”

When KROKUS first launched its decision to embark on a farewell tour in September 2019, the band outlined in a press launch: “KROKUS reveals have on a regular basis been explicit and can hold meaning. That’s the reason we decided to stop when it’s nonetheless truly good. That’s how the followers ought to keep in mind us.”
