Iron Maiden cancel gig in Bologna “due to very bad and dangerous weather conditions”
Iron Maiden was to play a concert in Bologna, Italy, on July 7, but the show was cancelled without a word from the band.
The following statement was published by Bologna Sonic Park:
“The Iron Maiden concert in Bologna tonight had to be cancelled for the safety of the fans, band, crews and all concerned due to very bad and dangerous weather conditions including extensive lightning and high winds. More info will follow soon.”
There have been some backlash on social media from fans for the lack of official statement from the band.
The fact that you still stay silent means you either don't care or don't realise the situation. Are you victims like us of some bad organisation or their partners in crime? People have spent their money and their time for you, yet not even a tweet from your side. It's shameful.
