[/h3] Canadian band
The Grey can't enter the US for
five years because they told US border guards they weren't playing a gig in the US. The guards checked the band's online touring schedule and went ballistically ape-shit.
[blockquote]We were treated as terrorists at first. When we first went, one by one, into the room with the interrogating officer they used that line about "America is at war, and Canada may not take that seriously..." and "since 9-11, we take these things seriously." Then they realized that we were not making any money doing what we do, and that we were more naïve than anything else. Some of the other guards even told us that the whole thing was bullshit, and that it was overzealous and a waste of paperwork. The decision to deport and ban us from the US was made entirely by officer Kurt Tennat, the supervising officer. He said he had consulted his supervisor by phone, but we don't know for sure.
No court proceedings, no legalities, no chance.[br clear="all"][/p][/blockquote] [a href="vny!://www.econoculture.com/m/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=307&Itemid=45"]Link[/a]
