Anathema - Jordan Show Cancelled


Anathema show August 25 concert at Amman Al Ahleyeh Areana in Jordan has been officially concelled. The band has posted the following message on their homepage:

"Anathema are very sad to announce the cancellation of the concert in Jordan on 25th august. The band and promoter have received notification from the Jordanian security services (Mukhabarat) that there has been a security alert and they are not prepared to let the show go ahead on grounds of public safety". The band writes in the statement. "These circumstances are completely beyond the bands control and we have no option other than to cancel the show."

"We would like to express our own deep personal disappointment at this situation and to pass on our heartfelt thanks to all the people in the region who have shown us such fantastic support. If there was any possible way that this show could have gone ahead then rest assured we would now be on our way. We shall try to re-schedule the show for sometime in the future when the safety for all at the event can be guaranteed.

Peace."

what the hell..!!!

for the first time i heared about that concert i was wondering about HOW did the "Jordanian security services" (Mukhabarat) allow that

that is, the idea for them about metal is that it's all for satan and the like....

and now they've did it...

i knew from the first that the Mukhabarat won't let that be here..!!!


@ Soul Grinder : well, about refunds ... ppl who have paid more than 30Jds who are the ones who lost ... like some have paid 40 Jds and more to get the ticket and now they will get back only 30..!!
unless they have some other ways to get back more than what they paid

understood me??


@ SETHULHU : well, welcome here .. man i can give you an advice ... you can go to "Madeenet Jbeha el tarwee7eyeh" and spend your money there hahaha

I saw her standing by the crimson sea...
Isolated by the silent thoughts...
Her gazing was intense but so dead...

The teardrops corroded the soil.. She couldn't say a word to me...
