PETALING JAYA: Ticket holders to the “Thirst 2015: We Are All Stardust” concert were anticipating an all-night long party.

But just hours before Saturday’s concert was scheduled to begin at the Mines International Exhibition and Convention Centre, the organiser, Future Sound Asia, said the event had been cancelled as it was denied an entertainment permit.
