[lego 44,165]

Russian website Life report that following the gig at the city’s Cosmonaut venue, a 27-year-old man named only as Igor, confronted a group who were using the nazi salute.

A scuffle ensued and Igor was stabbed in the abdomen. A medical team quickly arrived at the scene, but the man died a short time later.

...

The band say: “We have just been told that an Exploited fan had been killed outside our gig in St Petersburg after Saturday's concert. Our condolences go out to his family and hopefully they catch the people who did this.

“There are a lot of people here talking **** as if it is The Exploited’s fault that this kid got killed outside a gig – let’s get a few points cleared up.

“If we had seen anyone sieg heiling at our gig we would have had them kicked the **** out. Also, if the people who are talking **** had seen someone do this then why did they do **** all about it? There was 1700 people at the gig.”

They continue: “We had stopped playing five or six times due to the bouncers beating up the punks at the front of the stage.

"Nazi skins or punks are not welcome to our gigs ever.”

This is honestly why I don't go to metal shows anymore. There's a lot of neo-nazi in that scene (at least where I'm from) and they'd wear steel-toed boots just to start shít and purposely injure innocent people in the mosh pit and shìt.
