And I think other artists should follow him example. Maybe even PJ. We know they support Ukraine.

    Let's have a concert in a war zone. Yeah probably not a great idea.

    I am glad he canceled. It was never safe. Nice idea for Ukraine but never safe. Slava Ukraini

    Noble intent but I was surprised this could even be feasible

    I'd have to agree with this. A big fundraising concert in coordination with U24 would be great. Figuring out logistics for a large public event in a war zone sounded ... off.
    All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.
