To all the other white power bands that try to play here thinking they won’t get shut down, remember…it could happen to you!

PHILADELPHIA, PA – The show featuring the neo-Nazi band Aggravated Assault that was supposed to take place this Saturday at the clubhouse for the local chapter of the Outlaws Motorcycle Club has been canceled.
“Cancelled,city caved to anti’s terroristic threats if show went on,” read a post on Stormfront written by someone under the name “AC SKIN”, believed to be Atlantic City “Skinheads” (ACS) associate Chris Arlan, who then went on to accuse antifascist activists of phoning in bomb threats to the venue.
It is indeed said that the upper levels of the city government was responsible for getting the show canceled citing saftety concerns, but there has been no evidence of any threats being communicated to the Outlaws clubhouse. Calls to Mayor Michael Nutter’s office were not returned at the time of posting.
When it was learned last weekend that the show was to take place, activists, particularly those at Philadelphia Antifa and Wobbly Dash, posted alerts on their blogs about the controversial event, and eventually being reported in news outlets. The event was unusual not just because the address of the venue was on the flyer that was circulated, a rarity with concerts such as these that often endures opposition and shut downs, but also because Aggravated Assault is an ACS-associated band, and ACS is closely aligned with the Pagans Motorcycle Club. Safety concerns about the show initially came from the possibility of clashes between the two camps.
According to sources, the organizers are looking for other venues, but with the involvement of Philadelphia government, it might be risky to attempt.
