hi everyone, just thought i put up a post and i appreciate that it is in the wrong area of the forum but i also know that it is also the area that is most likely to get the most views. But i have just been on the oasisinet website and they are wondering if the milton keynes gig is still to go on due to the london terrorist attcks today. i ask this as i believe when 9/11 occured in new york that all big venue gigs were cancelled throughout america. Can anyone else help me with this one?

LONDON GIGS CANCELLED
As expected, following this morning’s (July 7) terrorist attack in LONDON, gigs across the city have been called off.
So far Sum 41 have announced that their show at the Astoria is cancelled, along with Nate James whose Shepherd’s Bush Empire gig is also off.
Prodigy were due to play London Carling Brixton Academy, but that is also off.
El Presidente have also cancelled their gig this evening at the The Underbelly in Hoxton.
So far there is no word on other concerts due to take place in London this week, however a statement concerning the fate of this evening’s Queens Of The Stone Age gig at Somerset House is due at 4pm.
NME.COM has been told their club date at Koko in Camden will not take place.
Meanwhile Queen’s official website have issued a statement about their Hyde Park gig tomorrow (July 8).
The statement reads: ”Further to the explosions in London this morning. We are currently speaking to the Queen camp in regards to the show in Hyde Park tomorrow. At present the Queen camp are being advised as to what they should do. The Queen press office is getting flooded with calls. Please do not call as we do not have any further information. We will keep you updated as soon we know anything.”
Stay tuned to NME.COM for the latest music news.

i'd be surprised if the mk gig was cancelled. it's 40 miles outside of london, which is significantly far away enough for the uk.
also, i'm well up for the gig on sat, but if they cancelled i suppose it was on the cards.

I was sort of expecting the show to be cancelled both out of security concerns as well as respect and sympathy for the bombings

Hey Mar, did they have a pit or golden circle at Southapmton? You know at the front where you get a wristband, thats where i mean? The MK gigs will go ahead, i'mm 99.98% sure of it. Having said that, I suppose London is vital in commuting to and from this gig.
