Anybody a Machine Head fan? Because apparently Disney hates you.

From a press release from the band’s publicist:

Disney Forces Machine Head Cancellation In a stunning last-minute move, Walt Disney Properties have pressured promoter Live Nation into canceling Machine Head’s performance tomorrow night at the House of Blues venue in Anaheim (on their Disneyland property). Citing violent imagery, undesirable fans and inflammatory lyrics as the reason, the diversity-impaired corporation began pressuring the promoter on Saturday to cancel all upcoming heavy metal concerts, placing Machine Head under an internal “review process” that took 5 days before bothering to convey their alarming decision to the band late yesterday - less than 48 hours before their Black Tyranny Tour was to kick off at House of Blues Anaheim on Friday night.

Whether or not you’re into Machine Head, this sort of fatwa is a problem because House of Blues is a major national chain, with 20-some venues in cities across teh U.S. So they ban a band in one, they ban that band in all of them.

Machine Head is not playing Seattle on its current tour.
