Israelis go to Domingo concert, but he’s a no-show
NewsDozens who turned up last night at Tel Aviv’s Menorah Hall to hear a recital by Placido Domingo were stunned to find it had been cancelled.
No announcement had been made of the singer’s withdrawal, either in media or online.
The organisers have promised a a full refund.
Report here.
The beginning of the end.
Why not reserve judgement until more is known? Was it illness, flight delay, memory lapse? In any case, fault is with the agency that distributed tickets for not notifying the patrons in a timely manner.
This concert has never been on his calendar, so maybe a fake announcement of this organizer?
Didn’t we say this would happen? Whatever the reason for the no-show: When he’s finally gone, out, quiet and still, the world will say “Thank God, that’s over.”
What a sad, sick, self-destructive state of affairs. I wonder if this kind of erratic behaviour is new for him? Signs of more trouble? Somebody in his family should keep him home. Full stop. No exceptions.
It was NEVER on his schedule!
When “dozens” show up for your gig…..it’s way past time to retire.
Domingo possibly won’t show up anywhere shortly.
We attended an Arena di Verona performance and here are the repercussions

They should be grateful!
The postponement of Plácido Domingo’s performance was due to logistical reasons. A new date for the concert is being arranged. Ticket buyers who bought tickets from the website of the official ticket office received information about the postponement and received their money back. Apparently those few people who went to the hall bought their the tickets on the “Viagogo” website, and therefore the ticket office as well as the local promoter have no details about them.
I bought the ticket of Domingo Israel concert from the official ticket website, and I received email notice of the concert postponement more than one month ago on July 27th. Those who went to the concert hall must have bought ticket from non-official channel.
I bought a ticket for Domingo’s concert in Tel Aviv from the Menora Hall website. On 27th July I was notified of the cancellation by email.
He is highly compromised as a human being…..time to disappear forever. Shame on you.
According to one ticket holder she was notified of the cancellation on July 27th
