A very reliable source just told me. hahahaah! I couldn't go anyway. that just makes me feel better

not sayin' I have proof one way or the other, but this does fit conveniently in line with what I was trying to say a while ago about Jaxx and their tendency to have these kinds of things happen

eaeolian said:Well, I've been playing there for ten years, and I've never had a national cancel on one of the shows we've been opening. (Blind Guardian booted us off, but that's a different story.)
The club had an issue once with announcing a Dream Theater show before the band confirmed it, so the band pulled it. Otherwise, the cancellations there aren't much different than any other club we've dealt with. Bands cancel shows/tours sometimes after they've been announced - it happens.
Anyway, I talked to them today, and they haven't yet been informed it's cancelled. They're checking with the band's reps to see what the deal is.
Chromatose said:yes, I think their policy is they refund , but ONLY if a show itself is cancelled (so, not rescheduled or something). I found this out when I went to get a refund for my Judas Priest/Anthrax ticket that time that Halford wouldn't play because he was afraid of terrorists. They were pretty rude at the one place I got them from though, stating "ticketmaster DOES NOT GIVE REFUNDS" and then I had to wait several minutes while the appropriate approval calls were made... I'm sure its a lot easier through the website though
Chromatose said:I know this is different, when a band announces a show and it cancels, it's the same thing everywhere.. I was just going on about something else and how they used to have a tendency to place bands on their schedule with a note along the lines of "YES, IT IS TRUE, WE ARE GETTING THIS BAND" when the band themselves never even planned to tour. I've seen nevermore shows listed on there at least twice, 4 or 5 years ago, for example. So yes this attitude of jaxx's is ingrained in me since it's what I was weaned on.
Jaxx Man said:Jaxx is very sorry for this cancellation. We are very upset about it. It was not cancelled by us. We will try to reschedule them in the future.
