The WONDERFUL TONIGHT singer had been possession of an official permit allowing him to perform at the famous venue next Thursday (03AUG06), but in a shock decision officials decided to withdraw it on Friday (28JUL06).

The musician's publicist KRISTEN FOSTER says, "Eric Clapton is extremely sorry to disappoint his Russian fans but the circumstances if the cancellation are beyond his control."
