Live Earth India music festival which was about to start on December 7, 2008 in Mumbai was cancelled due to the recent tragic events that took place in this city, said France Presse. Right now it is absolutely impossible to stay happy and listen to music. “Due to circumstances far beyond our control, we are saddened to announce that Live Earth India has been cancelled…”, said the festival’s organizers, which also include the ex-vice president of the U.S. Albert Gore. Previously it was planned that Live Earth India 2008 as much as the last year’s event shall be dedicated to the problem of the global warming. Live Earth charity concerts began in 2007. It took place in Rio De Janeiro, London, New York, Hamburg, Johannesburg, Shanhai, Sydney and Tokyo. Such famous artists as Madonna, The Police, Smashing Pumpkins, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Beastie Boys, Duran Duran, Genesis, Foo Fighters, Black Eyed Peas, Metallica and Bon Jovi were participating in it. This time it’s not going to happen.
Following the last information 195 were killed (20 of them were foreign citizens) and 295 were injured as the result of the terrorist attack in Mumbai (former Bombey) during the last week.
