byli nuceni odvolat své vystoupení v tureckém Izmiru plánované na 1. října  s tímto odůvodněním:
1. The stage structure was way too unstable and wouldn't hold any pressure through an intense KREATOR show of two hours, especially with the great audience that we've always experienced in Turkey...
2. Light rig, stage: all four towers were not safe; any pressure, physically, could have made it come down.
3. The stage had no roof. Halfway through the show there would have been heavy rain, so the show would have to be stopped anyway, with the risk of electric shocks etc.
4. No efforts at all by the promoters to have proper and safe conditions for the audience and the band.
5. After all this and under these circumstances we finally had to come to this decision.
