DEICIDE: Santiago Show Leaves Fans Disappointed
February 23, 2006A number of DEICIDE fans became unruly outside the Teatro Novedades in Santiago, Chile on Wednesday (Feb. 22) after the group's headlining performance at the venue started a half hour earlier than scheduled, according to Las Últimas Noticias. The band played for just an hour and left the stage after performing two brief encores. "We wanted to play for you guys yesterday. We'll make it up to you next time," vocalist/bassist Glen Benton said from the stage, refering to the cancelled show in Valparaiso on Tuesday (Story#1, Story#2).
According to Las Últimas Noticias, most of the DEICIDE fans arrived late at the venue since they believed that the show would begin at 9:00 p.m., as the promotional posters indicated. Instead, the concert kicked off at 8:30 p.m., resulting in several fights/incidents when fans tried to force their way inside the venue. Members of the Chilean Special Forces cleared the place and no one was arrested.
