The concert visitors were informed by text message and e-mail. It was also stated on the large screen above the door of the Amsterdam concert hall that the concert was cancelled.
Sunday’s show was canceled a few hours in advance because singer Eddie Vedder still struggles with voice problems. MOJO announces that Pearl Jam’s second performance on Monday will continue for the time being.
late time
Two Arnhem fans had already received their wristbands for the spot at the front of the stage, when they were told that the performance would not take place. “Disappointing of course. Because we had received those tapes, we had high hopes that the concert would also take place”, says fan Nienke.
According to her, the fans who were already queuing were more disappointed than angry. However, there is little understanding for the late time at which the cancellation was announced. “I can’t imagine that MOJO didn’t know that singer Eddie Vedder woke up this morning thinking he could sing tonight.”
Monday
Nienke and her boyfriend also have tickets for Monday’s concert. “Of course we hope that that concert will continue, but of course we also take into account that that performance will also be cancelled. That would be a shame. We have been waiting for this performance for two years now.”
The concert was initially planned in July 2020, but was postponed due to corona.
