An Ishay Ribo Chol Hamoed concert in Florida this evening was shut down midway to the chagrin and disappointment of attendees – and Ribo himself.
Matzav.com was told that due to “noise complaints,” hotel officials in Aventura, where the event was taking place, had no choice but to pull the plug – literally – on the Israeli singer’s performance. Apparently, the permit for the event was only until 9:45 p.m. and the performance and continued beyond that time.
Ribo, after being told of the news, decided to give the audience one more song, singing his hit Halev Sheli. But then officials went onto the stage and forced the musicians to stop playing. The stunned audience members broke out into chants of “Ishay! Ishay! Ishay!”
WATCH:
It looks like a mixed crowd.. could it be??
Get over it.
and the rest of the Torah while you’re at it, I guess.
Would they do that at a blm or other minority concert i wonder…..
Yes. A zman is a zman. Be responsible and keep your word.
Stupid immature audience.
Mass chillul shem shamayim gevald!!!!
What a calamity. How the Yidden suffer
Singers/performers are our new leaders/Gedolim. These paid performers are our new role models. Everything they say or do is oohh and aahh. They are all tzaddikim gemurim. Kllal Yisroel’s heros.
What’s next, no pizza immediately after Pesach?
Such Tzoros… Ay Ay Ay.
What’s with this “Ishay” business? The guy’s name is “Yishay” as in Dovid Hamelech’s father. Just because Israelis have trouble with pronouncing the “Yud” sound doesn’t mean we should misspel his name! Someone please enlighten me.
in some languages, other then english, “i” represents the same sound as the english “y”.
in some languages, other then english, “j” represents the same sound as the english “y”.
Let me enlighten you, babele. In this entire story about breach of tznius and Chillul Hashem, this is all you found worthy of comment. Are you enlightened now?
Maybe we can ask Yaacov Avinu about his son Yisoschar
You are correct. One should not misspeLL a name, or a very basic English word, especially one that refers to …. speLLing.
You’re already sufficiently enlightened. In the Zionese (“modern Hebrew”) language – among the many changes the Zionists made from, lihavdil, Lashon haKodesh – the Israelis often, as you noted, don’t pronounce the “y” sound at the beginning of the word. That’s why his name is spelled “Ishay” instead of the real “Yishay”.
Since he spells it that way, people just follow along and write his name as he does, even though it looks strange since the name is, of course, Yishay.
nickname?
Moshe = Moishy?
Dovid = Duvi?
Eliezer = Leizer?
I visited Chicago in 1956 there was some noise and I was told that it was music. I went to bed at 8:30.pm
The next day I went out for supper.
I saw a pair of shoes in a store window.
I will tell you more after my nap…..
Any event in Miami requires permits especially if it is outdoors and will have noise. Most neighborhoods don’t allow such events after 10pm since it is surrounded by residences.
This is poor planning by the organizers, they should have done this indoors or at a venue where they can get a noise permit past 10pm.
For the people complaining that this wouldn’t happen at a BLM protest, please be advised that here in Miami the police did not put up with any of that, that’s why you never saw any of that escalate here, unfortunately in other cities you might be right.
I’ve been to other non-Jewish events that had the same issue, anyone working in events knows this and the organizers should have planned better.
Ana from the City Managers office confirmed that a permit was never obtained for the event but rather the organizers hired off-duty cops and told them the event would be done at 9:45
Forget about the fact that it’s night time, outdoors and neighbors might want quiet. No, a bunch of self centered out of towners converge in a residential area demanding an outdoor concert continue after an agreed upon time for it to end. And then why wonder why people hate our guts
Exactly. Let them try this in Jackson or Toms River. Not only would it be shut down, there would be arrests.
Couldn’t have said it better myself!
Unfortunately this was badly planned by the organizers it seems. Concert officially started at 8:30 pm, which means 9 pm Jewish time. That’s 45 min before the noise permit was until..?
Did they get a refund?
It’s ok, Matzav choiteh umachti es harabim is going to be banned by all frum filters. We’ll make sure of it.
Here’s the words of the song with which the concert should have ended: dum, dum, dum, dummer dummer dum, did i dum did yu dum. Dum dum
