Two days ago, the popular tourist destination of Las Ramblas in Barcelona was attacked by terrorists using a van, which plowed into a busy crowd of people and killed 13 people and hundreds injured.
Dubfire, who was in town one day early ahead of a show scheduled for August 18 at The Light Off in Barcelona, was an eyewitness of the attack. On Twitter, he explained that he was biking in the area when he saw a “large white van” race down the promenade. He later recounted the experience to CNN. He was unharmed in the incident.

Dubfire has announced that he does not plan to cancel the show, and instead plans to donate all of the fees related to his Barcelona show to a charity for the victims of the tragedy. “We WILL NOT give into fear but will unite through music and the celebration of friendship,” he explained in an Instagram post. “I hope that it helps in some way.”
