ORPHANED LAND
The Israeli metallers are preparing for socially distanced gigs and a big birthday
Orphaned Land were supposed to support Iron Maiden in Tel Aviv in May, but instead they’ve been sitting at home and selling face masks through their online store. “That was completely cancelled, not even delayed, and that was a very, very big hit,” says Kobi Farhi. “Not to mention the fact we were supposed to get paid, but the event itself, the meaning of it, and the dream that it was for us to play with them. You’re selling masks instead of playing with Iron Maiden, and that’s something that hits you very hard.”
