British rock legend Eric Burdon has canceled a scheduled August 1 appearance of Eric Burdon and The Animals in Israel after receiving threats, his management announced Tuesday.
Weve been receiving mounting pressure, including numerous threatening emails, daily.
The last thing I intend do is put Eric in jeopardy, said a statement released by Burdons management. Burdon, 71, and his reconstituted Animals were scheduled to appear at the Zappa Shoni Amphitheater on a bill with 1980s local favorites Tislam.

This is the future of the BDS movement, threats of violence.
Hey whatever works right?
