Did they give a reason why, they had to cancel?

I just read on antkind.com that the reason why the gig was canceled is because of Iceland's crashing economy.

Major factors:
* Rapidly increased unemployment as result of corporate downsizing and bankruptcies.
* Steep increase of inflation.
* Free-fall currency which leads to nearly doubling of expenses arising from the euro.
Effect:
*
Sharp decrease in residual income leading to cutbacks on luxury and leisure items like concerts.
The concert is thereby cancelled.
