The_King Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 If you haven’t heard, British rock legends are set to headline the upcoming Singapore Rockfest 2024, scheduled to take place on the little red dot in May. The quintet will perform at Fort Canning Park on May 1. Tickets, which are priced at $188, went on sale last month, with ticketing platform Sistic reaching out to Malaysian fans, inviting them to attend the concert across the Causeway. "Attention all Malaysian rock fans!" it wrote on its promotional materials, along with details and ticket prices of the gig. This has triggered Malaysian netizens, with many expressing displeasure that, like Taylor Swift, the rock stars were giving their country a miss to perform in Singapore. "Singapore again, I can't believe it," lamented one fan, while another wrote: "Let them come to Malaysia to perform. Why is it always Singapore?" With a storied career spanning over half a century and 22 albums, Deep Purple are one of the most successful rock bands of all time. Best known for hits such as ‘Smoke On The Water’ (1972) and ‘Child In Time’ (1970), they last performed in Singapore at The Star Theatre in 2013. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
