I found out today that the Rush show in Greensboro I was planning to see on Friday has been pushed back by a day. Apparently those wicked “unforseen circumstances” caught Live Nation off guard.
Look, I’m a busy guy. My wife is a busy woman. Even our kids are busy. We all planned for me to see this show months in advance, because that’s what it takes to coordinate all of our schedules. I know Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neal Peart are rock stars and putting on a tour takes a herculean effort, but I was really looking forward to taking a day off of work and driving with my brother to see them play.
Telling fans three days before the show that it’s been postponed is pretty stupid, in my book. Now I can’t go. This sucks.
Live Nation announced today that due to unforeseen circumstances the Rush performance previously scheduled for this Friday, April 1st in Greensboro has been postponed one day and will now take place on Saturday, April 2nd at the Greensboro Coliseum. Doors remain 6:30 pm with show time at 7:30 pm.
After much consideration, as the Toledo performance would have been the 4th show in 5 days the decision was made to delay the show rather than move forward as previously scheduled. The added time between shows will ensure that fans in Toledo are treated to the best performance that Rush can deliver. As a result, the Toledo performance previously scheduled for Wednesday, April 6th will be postponed one week and will now take place on Wednesday, April 13th at Huntington Center.
Tickets for both of the previously scheduled performance will be honored at the rescheduled dates. Fans requiring a refund may do so at point of purchase.
