Mekka Cancelled
Posted Tuesday Jul 31, 11:02 PM by Scribe
According to a member of the Mekka staff, Sunday's incredible concert, as well as the tour that would have been one of the most ambitious undertakings to ever come out of Toronto, will not happen, adding to a long string of underground cancellations to hit the GTA.
All news is sketchy at this point. The Mekka staff person said the company -- which includes members from the biggest and best-known production companies in Ontario, including Lifeforce and Ottawa's Solid Marketing Collective -- will release more information on Wednesday.
Asked whether the tour cancellation was due to a pull-out by prime corporate sponsor Microsoft, the staff member said, "No... It was a big undertaking, and a lot of different things had to happen. Unfortunately it just didn't work out."
