"Of course musicians need to leave enough time for paperwork to be processed in order to obtain their visa in time. Some are luckier than others. Les Savy Fav, from Brooklyn, missed two shows and just scraped their way into their show at All Tomorrow's Parties festival ATP vs Pitchfork this month, after their permit was turned around just in time. The American anti-folk singer songwriter Jeffrey Lewis had to miss a sold-out show at the Windmill in Brixton, London, back in 2005 when he was refused entrance for not having the correct visa."
