Police in Spain tipped off police in the Netherlands, and the concert was called off. The Barcelona vehicular jihadis had a massive number of gas canisters, but they blew up their own house by mistake and opted for vehicular jihad instead. And the name of this band is “Islamophobic.” It is clear that this concert has been canceled not because of poor reviews, or “right-wing extremists,” but because of yet more jihad in Europe.
“CONCERT TERROR ALERT Rock band Allah-Las’ Rotterdam concert cancelled over terror threat as cops swoop on a Spanish bus ‘packed with gas canisters’ just a week after deadly Barcelona attack,” by Sam Christie, The Sun, August 23, 2017:
A ROCK concert in Rotterdam has been cancelled over a terror threat as cops swooped on a bus “packed with gas canisters”.
US band Allah-Las were due to play in the Dutch city this evening.
But the gig has been cancelled after police arrested a bus driver following a tip-off from Spanish police.
Anti-terror cops wearing bullet-proof vests evacuated the venue this evening and the concert was cancelled due to a potential “terror threat”.
The band said in a statement: “In response to the police, we are forced to cancel the concert of Allah-Las tonight in the Maassilo….
The band chose to use Allah – Arabic for god – because they wanted something “holy sounding”.
But last year they revealed they had received complaints over the religious reference.
They once had a concert in Turkey cancelled because the promoter didn’t feel comfortable with their name.
It is not known if this is the reason why their Rotterdam gig was called off at the last minute.
Lead singer Miles Michaud told The Guardian: “We get emails from Muslims, here in the US and around the world, saying they’re offended, but that absolutely wasn’t our intention….
somehistory says
Will there be a ban on gas canisters soon?
If they wanted something “holy-sounding,” they picked the wrong word. Evil is connected to the satanic god of isllum.
My Opinion says
What AREN’T moslems offended by…Something.Every.Single.DAY! Glad the police found the bus, but, hey, wherever you have moslems, you’ll have jihad.
roger woodhouse says
True.Without Jihad there would be no Islam.It would have withered away long ago
Dacritic says
You are so right. Everywhere you go, you would offend Muslims. Because their prophet was a small minded man who was easily offended.
Ashley says
And the name of this band is “Islamophobic.”
_________________
Yikes! For a second there I thought this was the actual name of the band.
Allah-Las, eh? Yeah…this band is going to be targeted… How dare Allah’s name be associated with MUSIC.
gravenimage says
Ashley, this *is* the name of the band. They are from LA:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allah-Las
Their name appears to be just a lark. Their music is pretty cool–kind of retro–here’s a sample:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiJYecS0vU0
epistemology says
Thank you gravenimage, agreed they’re pretty cool and as Ned says kind of 1960 or 1970 ish. But they’re absolutely non-provocative, the kind of boys mom would like as son-in-law. But muzzies always find a fly in the ointment, to give oneself a funny name – as in this case – is Western style. If the muzzies don’t like Western style – what they obviously do – they should stay away from our countries, we don’t need them here, life was much safer and happier without them.
I love Western culture and I want it to remain like that. I think we when you cross a border to a Western country you should see a big placard “You’re entering a sharia free zone”.
Muslims don’t feel at ease when they don’t find a reason to feel offended, years ago (before 9/11) Nike issued a pair of air-padded running shoes and to make it clear the word Air was printed on the heels. Muslims complained that it said Allah and threatened not to buy any Nike products anymore. Of course the word was written in some arched font with lots of curlicues, but even so I can’t see how you can read Allah instead of Air. Anyway Nike complied and withdrew the shoes. The biggest mistake you can make.
Daniel Triplett says
Agreed, cool music. A great tribute to California, the greatest state in the Union. We just ignore the Lefties and love California for what it is, with its natural beauty and allure–Democrats have never defined it for us.
Perhaps their band name wasn’t the best marketing strategy though. The name has a repelling effect until you turn on the sound.
D Austin says
” We just ignore the Lefties” That seems to be the problem. The “lefties” dominate the legislature and pass laws. And then there’s Leftie Governor “Moonbeam”. He is another whole story…
Daniel Triplett says
Yes, they’re nuts, but they can’t change the scenery. They can’t take away California girls either.
I just take a few deep breaths and look at the view to expel the Useful Idiots from my mind space.
Democrats don’t own California. God does.
Daniel Triplett says
If you like this style of music, you’ll like the band “Mystic Braves” too. “The Brian Jonestown Massacre” is another good one.
You’ll hear many similar bands if you create an “Allah-Las” station on Pandora.
gravenimage says
Thanks, Ned, epistemology, Daniel, and D Austin. Yes, the band has a deliberately retro sound, and just about no one–save ravening Mohammedans–could find anything to object to in their music.
As for California, I’m a California girl myself. There are actually quite a few Jihad Watch posters here. I don’t feel like I should have to leave just because there are so many clueless leftists around. This is my state too.
Daniel Triplett says
That’s right, we must hold the line, and not surrender this great state to the dummys.
Jayell says
So gas explosions are the new thing now?. I suppose one can kill/maim quite a few more people as an improvised demolition squad. Our muslim friends really have had quite some impact on everyday life in the West just now; air travel is now downright unpleasant as a result of the extra security because of them, whole areas of major cities are unpleasant experiences or out-of-bounds because of them, you can’t go to a major event without a lot of expensive and unnerving security because of them (assuming it’s not cancelled because of them), you won’t be able to hire a van without a lot of extra police formalities because of them, you won’t be able to buy anything that might be used for criminal attacks because of them, and no doubt you won’t be able to buy gas for your caravan or camping without a lot of police checking because of them. The best thing would be if we didn’t have to occupy the same living-spaces as them – even better if we didn’t have to share the same planet.
roger woodhouse says
Dpot on but will our so called leaders recognise this?Of course not.They dare not confront that so called religion in case they take to the streets.Then of course action would have to be taken which no Western leader is willing to do.
Ashley says
Something about this California-based band makes me uneasy…

Budvarakbar says
So? — I give up — what should someone be ‘uneasy’ about?
PRCS says
No, don’t give up!
Jack Diamond says
Allah Less should be the new name, once they find out the penalty for insulting Islam. Of course these hippies, 50 years too late, might just do a Yusuf Islam and convert. I’m listening to them on Spotify.
Boring. Trying to sound like a 60s garage band without one actual good song. Just some dumb asses who maybe read T.E. Lawrence, thought Allah was cool and attention grabbing. It got someone’s attention.
gravenimage says
I don’t think these musicians have any affinity for “Allah” or Islam at all, Jack–they just like the alliterative sound, and it is a reference to “La La Land” (Los Angeles). You can consider the name witty or lame, but it should–of course–not be grounds for murder.
Keys says
Here’s a la la la la la la song thatbjs definitately not about the muslim allah.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3d3tmpkoTyg
Keys says
Sorry, should be “that is definitely not about the muslim allah.”
Jack Diamond says
Not an affinity for Islam but not quite innocent fun either.
Miles Michaud: “The name really came from sounding good. I thought it had a ring to it like the Shangri-Las, the Allah-Las…
The spelling use of Allah is kind of secondary. The reason why it worked for me is because it’s clever, a little shocking to most people, but I think that’s the point. It shouldn’t be shocking, but there’s a bad stigma attached to the word, reasons that are kind of silly – at least I feel. There’s a lot of people in the world that think it’s a beautiful word, just because we’re taught to think otherwise doesn’t mean we should.”
Not just a sound, a “beautiful word” with a bad stigma attached “for silly reasons.”
Oh, and kind and holy sounding? Dude!
No one said they should be killed for it, I just called them dumb asses. Thinking “Allah” is kind of holy sounding, in this day and age. It is holy sounding to all the wrong people. And after listening to them for half an hour I stand by my (minority) opinion, they are boring (and real garage rock should never be boring, even when stupid, or especially when stupid…but then they don’t rock either, it’s more ambient in their greaseless garage). And pretentious. Trying to sound like they are recording in 1965, when such is not possible (and without any of the fun of 1965).
Suum cuique, to each their own.
Jack Diamond says
“kind OF holy sounding”….
gravenimage says
Ashley, I know about this band. I think the name is just a gag–there is nothing Islamic about this group at all. From I know of them they are fine.
Allan Mandrowski says
Being Offended. If a Muslim could graduate in it they would all graduate cum laude.
And another rock concert cancelled. Could have ended up in a carnage like at the Bataclan in Paris.
Will this Californian rock band change their name as a result?
Tom says
Allah-Las, Alas has fallen prey to yet more muslim hurt feelings. It’s really too bad because muslims don’t give a damn about anybody else and THEIR feelings.
So now we have to not only be wary of any muslim who can drive, but also any that have a tendancy to store any type of container that can be used to hold gas or gasoline. How about those who purchase large quantities of nails? It seems that what we have to be mindfull of things that muslims are purchasing or renting is expanding.
dumbledoresarmy says
The local hardware supply store – if run/ staffed by Infidels – looks like our frontline against the Jihad, at the moment.
And the chemist. And the rural produce store where one can buy fertiliser and such.
D Austin says
The “blew up their own house by mistake”? Makes it sound like they targeted the wrong house. More like they stupidly blew up their own house and themselves. Just nature weeding stupidity out of the gene pool…
manat bint allaha says
may i suggest reading dr. daniel pipe’s blog about dumb terrorists?
very entertaining, i assure you.
also, the irish movie ‘four lions’ is to be watched if one wants to have some fun.
dumbledoresarmy says
The ones that blew themselves and their house to smithereens in what the Israelis laconically term a “work accident” (they have a term for it, because it in fact happens rather a lot) should be entered as candidates for the 2017 Darwin Awards.
dumbledoresarmy says
Makes one wonder just how soon it will be before a mosque, or an “Islamic community centre”, or an Imam’s house or business, or an Islamic bookshop or Islamic-owned restaurant, or an Islamic school, somewhere in the western world, will go ka-BOOOM because someone was cooking up explosives or fiddling round with gas canisters, and didn’t follow the instructions properly. Inshallah fatalism doesn’t blend well with pinched-from-the-clever-infidels science-and-technology.
dumbledoresarmy says
Pursuant to my posting above… anybody want to run a betting pool on the possibility?
Which country will be next to see a ‘work accident’ of this kind, what mohammedan installation it will be (private home/ business/ Islamic school/mosque), and how any mohammedans will blow themselves up with their own explosives/ gas canister collection?
manat bint allaha says
meanwhile, in france, charlie hebdo is at it again.
manat bint allaha says
hmm, perhaps i should start a band, together with my sisters:
‘manat, al-lat and al-uzza, daughters of allah’
meanwhile, look us up in the quran.
Jack Diamond says
ah yes the Satanic Verses Band!
Then Allah revealed (Sura 53) … and when he came to the words “Have you thought al-Lat and al-Uzza and Manat, the third, the other?” (VV. 19-20) Satan cast on his tongue – because of his inner debates and what he desired to bring to his people – the words: “These are the high-flying cranes; verily their intercession is to be hoped for.”
When the Quraysh heard this, they rejoiced and were happy and delighted at the way in which he had spoken of their gods, and they listened to him, while the Muslims, having complete trust in their Prophet with respect of the message which he brought from Allah, did not suspect him of error, illusion or mistake.
manat bint allaha says
thank you for posting them.
makes me wonder, that kinda puts a dent in the muslims claim that allah is a oneness, amorphous god, with no children.
tedh754@gmail.com says
I guess they haven’t been keeping up on the news. Muslims seem to be offended about everything.
dumbledoresarmy says
Like certain kinds of bullies, they have already decided to attack no matter what their victim does or does not do; so they are always looking for something, no matter how trivial, over which they can pretend to take offence.
underbed cat says
This band better thank their lucky stars it was cancelled in Turkey….or they would have been in sudden cage trouble…better hide out for a while.
underbed cat says
Wait, did I read this wrong, was it the bands bus loaded with canisters?
gravenimage says
The band members were not the Jihadists.
More Ham Ed says
“We get emails from Muslims, here in the US and around the world, saying they’re offended…”
Unholy ko ‘ran followers have 10,000 “reasons” to be “offended” for every ONE other category from everyone else. Thanks to the unholy ko ‘ran (sarcasm).

They can contact the UK Director of Public Prosecutions, who has announced:
“no evidence is needed to report a ‘hate crime'”: it only needs to be “perceived” by the alleged victim. .

David M says
So concerts in Sweden are off due to Muslim rapes, & concerts in the Netherlands are off due to Muslim terrorism threats. Soon Octoberfest in Germany will have to be either called off or have the whole army outside as security.
God's child says
Probably the safest bet would be to have several private club based Octoberfests by invitation only. We need to think and act as if we have been invaded by a foreign army as did the people in Europe in WW2 when they had to fight Hitler. So much had to go underground in order to survive.
gravenimage says
I don’t want to change the way I live to accommodate Jihadist Muslims. Muslims do not belong in the civilized West.
God's child says
I would change the name of the band, not to appease anyone but simply to “choose life” as in your own life. The situation is synonymous with having crazy neighbors or drug dealers down the street to not antagonise them but self segregate from them whereever possible and try not to set them off. There are many types of crazies in the world. I can see more and more public gatherings being cancelled due to the world situation and private group events for one’s own demographic by invitation only becoming the new norm. Why go to a movie theatre with a bunch of possibly dangerous strangers when you can have your own home theatre in the safety of your own home for friends and family?
gravenimage says
The more we appease Muslims the less safe we are.
roger woodhouse says
Exactly gravenimage.This whole nightmare could have been stopped many years ago .Our gutless appeasing governments are entirely to blame for the situation we are in.Perhaps its too late but I still think with the right people in charge this could be turned around
gravenimage says
Agreed, Roger.
Michael Copeland says
We are less safe. Quality of life has been adversely affected. We know that. Perforce our response has been to adjust our behaviour to our own disadvantage, by reducing our expectations to a new lower standard. We do this and subconsciously adjust: the loss becomes normalised. Pensioners refrain from going out at night. Women are not safe on their own. Indigenous British refrain from setting foot in problem areas where they know they are likely to be assaulted. It is a loss of life quality.

dumbledoresarmy says
Yes.
The proper response to all this hoo-ha would be to loudly and publicly announce that, having learned that the associations of the word ‘allah’ are anything *but* holy, they are changing the name of the band to … “L’Chaim!”

Jihad in the Netherlands: Concert of “Allah-Las” rock band called off as cops find bus “packed with gas canisters”

Any sane person would find the name of this band fun–not Muslims, who use it as an occasion to plot mass slaughter.

There is no fun in Islam..

“It is not known if this is the reason why their Rotterdam gig was called off at the last minute.”
Fun fact: Rotterdam will be majority Muslim around mid-century. As Brussels late century. Notice anything, already?
Ernie says
Georg , I don’t see the ‘ fun ‘ regarding your ‘Fun Fact ‘. But may be you have some sick/weird sense of humor . Or : explain yourself please . FYI , I’m living in the Netherlands .
gravenimage says
Ernie, “fun fact” is often used ironically, for something that is anything *but* fun. I think that was how Georg was using the term. He was not gloating over the plight of the Netherlands.
unbeleiver1 says
The usual Muslim outrage.No wonder Islam is viewed as not being compatible with democracy.
“The religion of intolerance”.i have never heard of The Jesus and Mary Chain having to cancel a concert or having to boost security due to threats or outrage from Christians.
FYI says
allah doesn’t actually like music..
“On the day of resurrection,
allah will pour molten lead into the ears..
of whoever sits listening to a songstress”
{Reliance of the Traveller,umdat al salik section r40.1}
So allah will torture you just for listening to music.allah is a bit odd like that.
But then allah also hates dogs,cartoons,the Jews,the Bible and happy smiley people.
And yes,allah’s threat to pour molten lead down your throat simply for listening to music….. is an actual islamic teaching.
Apart from music, allah hates chess {sahih muslim book 28 no 5612}..
“He who played Chess is like the one who dyed his hands with the flesh and blood of swine”.
There you go with those pigs again .
allah’s weird like that:and it’s always about the pigs.
God Your move..
allah grrrrr
God Checkmate!Again.I never lose! .unlike you allah… haha.

D Austin says
Reminds me of the propane tank theft spree and bulk cell phone purchases in Missouri back in late 2015, right after the mass killing in San Bernardino, Calif. One of the bulk cell phone purchasers was questions by police – “Officers spoke with the male subject, who was of Middle Eastern descent, and asked for identification, which was provided.”

Susette says
I defend their right to call their band whatever they want. Personally, I would never name my band something that would remind me every minute of every day of the evil that allah is. Allah is not the least bit “holy sounding” to me. It’s offensive.
Allan Mandrowski says
The probably say it to cover their asses in case some Muslim lunatic gets all mad with them.
Agreed though. Easier would have been to simply have a different band name.
gravenimage says
Just their playing music is offensive to Muslims. Muslims have attacked musicians many times before.
