Sometimes protests work! A singer has cancelled a show in which he was to appear together with Ariel Zilber (who made some very anti-gay remarks - see many items below). Shlomo Gronich said, "After much hesitation and very sadly I contacted Ariel and asked not to have the show. I love and admire him as a musician and would very much like to work with him, but on the other hand he said things with which I do not agree and cannot accept." Ittai Pinkas, the chairman on the Homo-Lesbi Association said, "We welcome this decision by an artist that the [Homo-Lesbi] community admires and loves not to appear with Ariel Zilber.

Also, the TA municipality cancelled a performance by Zilber for similar reasons. Ariel Zilber refused to comment on the cancellation.
