His tour of France just keeps making waves: Anthony B's concert planned in Sannois (95) on Tuesday 28 October 2008 has been cancelled. Not because of the mobilisation of gay and lesbian rights groups against the event, but rather the opposite. Preferring dialogue to demanding the cancellation of the concert, Tjenbé Rèd had seen the venue (the EMB) agree to its request by providing a stand for the association.
But an email sent on Wednesday 22 October by Tjenbé Rèd to 22 associations in the département, inviting them to mobilise and be present on the night of the concert, put everything back in question. The management of the EMB, arguing that "conditions had been met to create uncontrollable conflicts that could cause harm" for which it would be held responsible, preferred to cancel the concert, in agreement with the mayor of Sannois, Yanick Paternotte.
