Das FortaRock in Nijmegen (NL) hat auf die kürzliche Entgleisung von Phil Anselmo reagiert. Trotz seiner Entschuldigung darf sich der Down-Fronter und Ex-Pantera-Sänger nun als ausgeladen betrachten. Der Veranstalter veröffentlichte folgendes Statement:
„After the recent outbursts by singer Phil Anselmo during the Dimebash event in the US, his band Down is no longer welcome at FortaRock. Anselmo ended the show in the US with a Nazi salute and shouted „White power“. There has been close consultation between all parties recent days, since we wanted to make a well informed decision. On that basis, the decision is made to cancel the act. We want to make clear that there is no room for racism or fascism at FortaRock.“
