Machine Head’s Music Rattles Disney
telegram.com – Machine Head is disturbing The Mouse.
Twice this month, House of Blues concert venues on Disney-owned property — one in Anaheim and one in Orlando — booted long-booked Machine Head concerts just days ahead of the scheduled performances.
The Orlando House of Blues also forced death-metal band Cannibal Corpse to change venues.
“It’s pretty disturbing,” said Machine Head singer Robb Flynn. “We are shocked that in this day and age, in 2007 America, that bands can be pressured, (and) that promoters can be pressured by a business and be removed from a venue because somebody doesn’t like what your lyrics stand for or think that your fans are crazy.
We’ve played these venues before, and there was no indication that anything was going to be different.”
