We'll be damned if we can't find a single report or photo from the Gala Event at Yeni Melek in Istanbul on June 18. We received one email from a fan who said the show was by special invitation only, which confused us. The show was never advertised on Beastieboys.com; it was only mentioned in the official e-newsletter. That's not a special invitation.
Somebody had to attend this show. We hope to hear from them soon.

there was this one kid on bbmb

People at Yeni Melek Beyoğlu were simply liars. I gently asked them about the event and they replied 'no, you're wrong mister'. Yesterday I phoned them again, this time they replied 'yes it was yesterday night and you missed it'. I shouted at him like 'wow you're a sincere person!' Nevermind I had been planning to wait there to see what they were up to, but I thought that it was an urban legend so I prefered to stay at home. I have no idea about the reason why Beasties kept this event as a secret.. Where and how did those invited folks get their invitations? I'd like to have a chat with them for a while, get my waxes signed..I missed that opportunity=((
Extra info: The show was advertised on Beastieboys.com a month ago just for 1 hour and then they deleted the info.
So who was this show for if fans didn't get an invitation and didn't attend it?
The thread on BBMB that Friis pointed to is about the show on June 17 (the One Love Festival performance), not the Istanbul Gala Event.
I can find absolutely no evidence that there was a Gala Event in Istanbul.
