A conflict isn't going to stop Behemoth from playing their show as promised.
The band took to social media today to let their fans in Tel Aviv, Israel know that they will be playing their show as scheduled. Unless you've been living under a rock, you are aware of the conflict between Israel and Hamas that has led to bombings in the region. The conflicted has resulted in many musicians cancelling their shows in the region, including Neil Young, Lana del Ray and (gasp) the Backstreet Boys.
But Behemoth aren't afraid of a little gun powder. The band posted this message:

As much respect as I already have for Behemoth, this decision grows my respect leaps and bounds. These guys are fearless and I look forward to taking a peek at some live bootlegs from this monumental show. If it's anything like their show at Hellfest, this will be an epic show.
