Tel Aviv - what's going to happen??

Post by jarkko »

I have for the time being removed Tel Aviv from the summer tour itinerary at the request of AEG Live in London. '
No more info available for the time being. Waiting for advice from Israel.

The representative of the Israeli producer denies the rumors about the cancellation:
אמנם בפורום מחקו את המופע, אבל ההפקה הישראלית ממהרת להכחיש ביטול או בעיות כלשהן. עו"ד חגי שטרווייס, המייצג את אמרגן המופע מרסל אברהם,
מיהר להרגיע ואמר כי אינו יודע מה עומד מאחורי ההודעה בפורום. שטרווייס אישר כי "ההופעה תתקיים בתאריך המתוכנן".

Translation:
Although the concert has been deleted in Leonard's forum, the Israeli producers deny any cancellation or problems. Lawyer Hagay Straweis, representing the producer Marsel Abraham, said he does not know what's behind the post in the forum, approving that "the show will take place as scheduled.

Ah, Jarkko - you are doing it again, cruelly building up all that tension and then probably you'll tell us to "be patient"! ;-) Do you feel the power you have, driving people nuts just by some lines you post? :) Somehow, this feels like waiting for Christmas - or rather Hanukkah, but I am not sure that this is entirely positive and that I can really stand waiting until next week once more...

I am just following the precise instructions received from the tour management. They wanted to let everybody know that next week there will be such an announcement, and the fans will be the first ones to hear what they have to say. Another gesture of good will from the management.

Yes, sorry - of course, I fully realize that! Well, rationally speaking, anyway - but whenever it comes to Leonard-related events, unfortunately, I am only half-rational at best! :roll: So I'll just be patient and meanwhile thank you, Jarkko... ;-)

(Note that I didn't say anything about being patient although it was hard to resist the temptation ;-) )
