    The Strokes has announced a second concert date in Singapore to accommodate their Malaysian fans who were left disappointed by the cancellation of the Good Vibes Festival. The festival was supposed to be the band’s debut performance in Malaysia.

    The cancellation of the Good Vibes Festival was a result of a controversial incident involving British rock band The 1975’s lead singer, Matt Healy. Healy criticized the Malaysian government’s LGBTQ laws and kissed bassist Ross MacDonald on stage. The festival was subsequently ordered to be cancelled by the Communications and Digital Minister, leaving fans devastated.

    The Strokes have announced their second concert in Singapore to make up for the cancelled festival. The concert will take place on August 3 at the Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre. Julian Casablancas, the band’s frontman, took to Instagram to apologize for the last-minute arrangement and express his appreciation for their Malaysian fans.

    In an effort to offset the cost of travel for Malaysian fans, The Strokes will offer heavily discounted merchandise. Ticket prices for the Singapore concert range from $148 to $188 (approximately RM506 to RM643). There will also be a VIP package available for $108 (approximately RM369).

    Tickets will go on sale today, July 28, at 4 PM MYT. They can be purchased through the Marina Bay Sands website or Live Nation Singapore’s website.

    The VIP package includes access to a dedicated VIP merch counter, an express VIP queue at the bar/concession area, exclusive VIP posters, and a limited edition tour laminate with special filters and a lanyard.
