Concert in Jakarta, Indonesia Cancelled

 Over the years, Jakarta, with its many loyal A7X fans, has become one of our favorite cities to visit. And so it is with the deepest regret that we announce tonight's (May 1) concert in Jakarta, Indonesia has been cancelled.


Upon arriving at the venue in the morning and consulting with local production staff it was determined that the stage at Carnaval Beach was not safe and would endanger the band and the thousands of fans who had purchased tickets. Although the building of a stage is the responsibility of the promoter, not the band, our production crew made every effort to work with local staff to find a way to overcome concerns and put on a safe event. Unfortunately the safety concerns were too great and made it impossible for us to perform.

You may read reports from others that the show was cancelled because the band was worried about its security. Do not believe it. There is only one reason the show was cancelled: the stage had numerous defects and was not safe and our fans, as well as the band and crew, could have been hurt. 

Words cannot adequately express how disappointed we are at missing the opportunity to play in Jakarta.

**UPDATE**
We have been advised by the promoter that full refunds will be issue to ticketholders at the Twin Plaza Hotel Ballroom on May 5 between the hours of 10:00 A.M. and 3:00 P.M.

Selama bertahun-tahun, Jakarta, dengan banyak penggemar A7X yang setia, telah menjadi salah satu kota favorit kami untuk dikunjungi. Demikian juga dengan penyesalan terdalam bahwa kita mengumumkan malam ini (Mei 1) konser di Jakarta, Indonesia telah dibatalkan.

Setelah tiba di tempat tersebut pada pagi dan konsultasi dengan staf produksi lokal ditetapkan bahwa tahap di Pantai Carnaval tidak aman dan akan membahayakan band dan ribuan penggemar yang telah membeli tiket. Meskipun pembangunan panggung adalah tanggung jawab promotor, bukan band, kru produksi kami melakukan segala upaya untuk bekerja dengan staf lokal untuk menemukan cara untuk mengatasi kekhawatiran dan memakai sebuah acara yang aman. Sayangnya masalah keamanan terlalu besar dan tidak memungkinkan bagi kita untuk melakukan.

Anda mungkin membaca laporan dari orang lain bahwa acara itu dibatalkan karena band ini mengkhawatirkan keamanannya. Jangan percaya. Hanya ada satu alasan acara itu dibatalkan: panggung memiliki cacat banyak dan tidak aman dan fans kami, serta band dan kru, bisa saja terluka.

Kata-kata tidak dapat cukup mengungkapkan betapa kecewa kita karena kehilangan kesempatan untuk bermain di Jakarta.
