Kuwait concert

March 19, 2015 Kuwait City
The few comments regarding length aside, the Kuwait City concert of March 19th looks to have been a CLASSIC "Plateau" event and I'm sorry I missed it.

This was the "Hala Feb" concert postponed from its original February 20th date. Link to view highlights.

Next concert, Amr?  How about Scandinavia? I've never been but I could go! Turkey, Malta, Romania ... all good.

Hala Feb in March

Note that if you think you missed the Kuwait City Hala Feb (20) concert at the ice rink, you are not too late!! Show was postponed to March 19, although still being billed as a February concert. Looking for flights now ...

THE PLATEAU threatens lawsuit

Amr Diab is not a happy bunny.

The Egyptian superstar is reportedly furious with MBC TV after they broadcasted videos from his private life without taking his permission. The TV series "Ayyam Fi Hayat Al Hadaba" (The Life of Al Hadaba - Amr Diab) was not received well by Diab, after allegedly asking MBC not to air the show or use his personal videos without his consent.

But Diab's fans weren't sure why Amr would want to keep the show buried. News sources said that a joint project with Vodafone, where fans download an app that sends them never-seen-before pictures and videos of Diab's private life, might all go down the drain now that MBC's show is doing the same thing. The fact that MBC's show is on the air means that Diab's app - "Amro Diab's World" - might have to get cancelled. To make matters worse, Diab claims not have been paid a single penny for his private videos, making MBC the sole party benefiting from his "treasured" videos, which give an insight into Diab's early life and his journey to fame.

Diab announced on his official Facebook page that legal action will be taken against MBC if they don't take the illegal show off the air. Either way, Diab's fans were super excited by the first episode, as they got to see their idol recording in the studio, watching football and working out in the gym.
