Barenaked Ladies cancels Disney Block Party performance
Well, it didn’t even take 24 hours. According to this article in the Canadian Press, the Barenaked Ladies have cancelled their appearance on Disney’s Block Party Tour that scheduled for Long Island in late-August.
Drug possession charges against Barenaked Ladies lead singer Steven Page have prompted the band to cancel a scheduled performance at a children’s concert in New York.
…manager Terry McBride said the “Ladies” chose to cancel the concert out of respect for the sponsor.
I am sure Disney is breathing a sigh of relief this morning, as the band has saved them from a potential public relations nightmare.
