Is ISIS sponsoring the tour?
Is Yusef calling himself Cat Stevens again?
He needs the cash to go fight with ISIS?
Mourning has broken...
I’m having a hard time believing this story. The only people who might want to attend a concert....are folks in their mid-50’s, who remember this guy’s tunes. He hasn’t sold a hit in thirty years. If I were him and going to the US...I’m limit myself to strictly to the DC region and NY City, and hope that I could get maybe ten thousand tickets sold entirely.
Lol!
A Muslim advocate complaining about scalpers. Hmmmm
This thread could very interesting...
Scalpers = Jews (in the eyes of a muslim)
His terrorist partners told him about a schedule conflict with this date.... they’re planning an attack on NYC for that week.
Well at least they’re not beheaders.
LOL
He’s full of crap. Maybe people don’t want to go to his show because they don’t want to fund raise for terrorists.

Later on, as the event nears, the ticket may rise or fall in value. So what? It’s the market at work.
I thought we wiped this guy out in a drone strike years ago?
Like I give a rat's ass.
I’m being followed by a Moon-God shadow...
Bovine excrement. Probably couldn’t sell.
