Argentines were excited to watch the Jamaican bandsIsrael Vibration,Don CarlosandFully Fullwood Band, and the Brazilian bandTribo de Jah. Despite 5000 Argentines waiting at the entrance to the event last Saturday, the "Puro Reggae II" festival did not take place as expected. At 7:00 pm whenIsrael Vibrationwas supposed to be opening the big event, the doors ofSaldías Warehouse, the event's headquarters, were still closed. On that cold day and after waiting for 1 hour, the attendants on duty were already impatient, and rumors were already talking about the suspension of the show due to lack of a license from the city hall. Soon after, the emergency doors were opened and people entered to watch the Argentine bandsResistência Suburbana,Naty ComboandRiddim, who entered to calm the audience present. They played for some time until the police dispersed the audience, putting an end to the party. No one could explain what happened, we don't know who were responsible, the organizers or the owners of the building.Buenos Aires's government also did not comment on the matter.
Argentina currently has many municipal controls due to the biggest tragedy in the world of music: the fire at theCromañonclub where 194 young people, who were hoping to see the rock band “Callejeros”, burned to death due to the emergency exits being closed.
