Four performances of the band in the region ceased to occur; singer again questioned justification presented by contractor
THE Iran! He found himself in the eye of the hurricane in recent times. Four band shows in the southern region of Brazil were canceled due to a position of Nasi During a show held in Contagem (MG) at the end of March.
At the time, the singer asked that supporters of the former president Jair Bolsonarocurrently ineligible, leave the audience after boos that he fired the “no amnesty” cry, in reference to the prisoners in the attacks of January 8, 2023 in Brasilia.
THE 3LM Entertainmenta company that produced the four presentations in the South – more specifically in Jaraguá do Sul, Blumenau, Caxias do Sul and Pelotas -, he said he had no choice but to cancel the events. In a statement, the company reported “Numerous requests for cancellation of purchased tickets, withdrawal from sponsors and the clear risk of non -progressing sales to the dates of the shows”.
Nasi himself acknowledged, in a later released video, that there were “losses”. However, after taking advantage of the occasion to apologize to the bandmates, the singer stated that they will recover – in a process that, in his words, occurred.
In later interviews, the artist reported that, in fact, there were no real requests for cancellation of tickets, but yes, robot actions handled online by Bolsonaro supporters. “Even the contractor said he received messages from people from Manaus, something like ‘Oh, I won’t go to the show’.said to Billboard Brazil.
Now, to EstadãoNasi went further and defined the guardian in the south as “shit”. Initially, he was invited to reflect on the canceled shows and said the episode “It does not represent the public, nor the southern people”.
“As much as they [do Sul] Statistically have a more conservative guidance, this was not pushed by fans. This was digital militia. Our November show in Porto Alegre is practically sold out. They made a terrorism with the contractors, literally. And there was a contractor who was responsible for five such shows. I know of robots, people who are on the other side of the country, in Manaus, saying they would not go to the show (laughs). ”
Then, the evaluation was made about the behavior of the production of events in Jaraguá do Sul, Blumenau, Caxias do Sul and Pelotas:
“Now, the guy [produtor] It was shit. Several other contractors received these threats, played and succeeded. Because our shows, from the first, are crowded. Here in Sao Paulo, we had to open an extra night in the vibration. Almost 6,000 people fit there. ”
Finally, Nasi made it clear that he does not break relationships with people of political position different from his. The problem occurs with those who manifest prejudice – yet it is not possible to block this portion of audiences of their shows.
“So, who is conservative, from the democratic right, I do not break relationships because of it. Unless the person is a beast, offending with homophobia, racism, asking for the dictatorship. This is not conservative, this is reactionary thing. But I have no way to prevent it too.”
Nasi evaluates – and criticizes – the left in Brazil
Still during the interview, Nasi, which is said to be center-left, criticized the lack of renewal in the progressive field. Moreover, in his view, there is not so much firm pulse in the current co -religionists.
He commented:
“We have a problem of renewal on the left, especially leadership. They will be angry with me, but the traditional left is very ass-mole. Even people I know, saying they are vegan, who are bicycle, who are affiliated to parties, but at ‘let’s see’, they don’t want to talk about the beasts … he (Jair Bolsonaro) It was just a puppet of a closet full of bones and corpses. ”
The 63 -year -old artist added, also addressing the right in Brazil:
“You see these guys there in a green and yellow shirt, which pray to the barracks, are waiting for ET to go down, they march like idiots. It’s a right -wing right, but it slaps. They get into the divided. Today a right -wing youth is growing. That’s terrible.”
