They would have been forced to sing in French.

Probably some kind of management issue with the festival, I'm sure he's not lying when he says it was out of their control.

From what I heard, the whole show has been canceled due to low ticket sales.

Hi,
 
I'm from Québec City. First, DT love to play here. They said a lot of time!
 
But for this, it was a kind of festival including some bands or artists that are wide of DT music style.
 
Imagine! Bryan Adams, Nickelback, Collective Soul, and locals artists influenced by Adam and cie.
 
I'm not buyed a ticket because i did not pay 100$ to see DT 20 minutes!!!
 
They came here last year with over 5000 fans in ExpoCité, an audience record for this place!
