The cancelation makes no fucking sense. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 years ago (1 child) That's what I mean. That's why I was wondering if maybe those are the only places in Asia they were touring and since they canceled the Malaysia they didn't want to... But they're already there. Yeah it's weird. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] quicksand@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago (1 child) My only guess is that they would hope Taiwan would pressure the other countries to shape up. But that makes no sense based on the culture/religion of Malaysia and Indonesia vs Taiwan so idk permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 1 point 3 years ago Yeah, that'd be tough. I was thinking maybe they're just tired or demoralized and near the end of their tour dates, but it is like they have another 40 shows. Taiwan is the absolute best! permalink fedilink source parent
