Capleton

Last month, reggae artist Capleton kicked off his U.S. Tour promoting his new album I-Ternal Fire. Unfortunately, the “Fireman” is feeling the fire from gay rights activists who pressured local Chicago club owner Jim Gouskos into cancelling the Chicago leg of the tour. The show scheduled at the Kinetic Playground for October 9 was cancelled and the owner sent an email to the Gay Chicago Magazine which simply read “The Capleton show has been canceled”

The club owner initially refused to cancel the show stating he couldn’t afford the $11,000 loss however, clearly the mounting pressure campaign by the Gay Liberation Network succeeded.
