Twenty One Pilots had to cut a sold-out concert in Russia short due to an alleged bomb threat.
The duo of Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun were performing at Moscow’s Sokol Music Hall on Sunday night – but they were forced to wrap up the set early after being warned by police that they could be in danger.
In a now-deleted tweet, they said: “Moscow, that was such an amazing show. The police cut our set a couple songs short because of a bomb threat. We are safe. You be safe.”
The band then checked in to say: “We can’t believe we get to play our music in Russia. We’re so proud. Moscow was amazing.” The message made no reference made to the scare.
The pair are currently on the European leg of their world tour in support of their most recent studio album Blurryface, which reached no.1 on the Billboard 200 chart in May last year.
