Sad.

Live Earth India, which was scheduled to take place in Mumbai, India on December 7th, has been cancelled because of security fears after last week’s terrorist attacks that left almost two hundred dead and hundreds more injured.

According to reports, the concert was designed to highlight environmental concerns and India’s Light a Billion Lives solar energy program.

Bon Jovi and other booked acts were quick to cancel travel plans when the violence erupted, which prompted organizers to call off the sold-out charity event.

A British artist, Amar Dhanjan, who was booked to perform, thought cancellation was the right thing to do, “It’s just not important compared to what’s happening there right now.”
