Morrissey says meat is murder so Harpa is out By Birgir Olgeirsson 6. febrúar 2015 15:30 Morrissey says meat is murder. Getty/GVA „At this moment it's uncertain if the concert will take place,“ Halldór Kvaran at RR Ltd. says about the decision of the British musician to cancel his concert in Harpa - The concert and conference centre in Reykjavík. The issue is that meat meat is being served there. Nútíminn first reported this story here in Iceland last night, where a statement from the musician is quoted, published on the website of his fans called True to You. Halldór Kvaran had been negotiating with Morrissey on a concert in Harpa but it came to a halt because meat is being served in Harpa. "I understand that he does not play where meat is available and we are of course not able to control the content of the menu in Harpa. Therefore, Harpa is no longer an option and we are looking into other available places for us. It's as simple as that," Halldór says. Morrissey is know for his opposition to meat-eating but last year he said that he did not see any difference between child abuse and meat-eating when he answered questions on the previously mentioned page of his fans True To You. „This is like saying I would not play in some house if the electricity was generated through nuclear power. Therefore, Harpan is not an option in this case. We're looking into the possibility of finding something else or decide not to do this at all,“ Halldór at RR Ltd, a concert promoter here in Iceland for bands like Mettalica, Iron Maiden, Robbie Williams, Elton John, David Bowie and others.
