Bob Vylan Dropped from Gogol Bordello Tour, to Perform Separately in Lisbon and Porto

In a surprising turn of events, the London duo Bob Vylan will no longer be part of the tour with Gogol Bordello. The concerts in Lisbon and Porto, which were initially scheduled as the opening acts for the popular band, will now see Bob Vylan perform separately under their own name.

The controversy that erupted at Glastonbury Festival seems to have been the catalyst for this change. As a result, the concert in Porto is no longer part of the tour. However, the Lisbon concert is still happening, and it's scheduled for October.

Lia Pereira, a renowned journalist, has covered the Bob Vylan controversy and is likely to report on their Lisbon concert. The date for the Lisbon concert has been confirmed, but the band that will replace Bob Vylan as the opening act for Gogol Bordello's concerts in Lisbon and Porto has not been explicitly named in the search results.

Bob Vylan's performance in Lisbon will mark a significant moment for the band, as they will perform without Gogol Bordello. This independent concert in Lisbon follows the announcement that their concert in Porto is no longer part of the tour.

The London duo had concerts scheduled in Lisbon and Porto as part of a tour with Gogol Bordello. It remains to be seen how the band will navigate this change and how their performances will be received by their Portuguese fans.

Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
