Tonight's (8/1) Stevie and Rod show cancelled
 

According to Nina on Waddy's FB page, Rod is sick.

you know rod seemed in perfect health on saturday night in pittsburgh but hopefully he gets better soon. i feel for all the people that bought tickets to the show tonight. i hope they reschedule for you all.

sitting here in greensboro with front row tix for LaNicks! not rod the cod... this sux more than i can say. later rod

that sucks for everyone that was going to the show tonight hope he feels better for the other shows and hope Stevie doesn't catch what he has either.

Well, this is just great. I was getting ready and everything!

Damnit, I ended up getting free tickets, literally an hour ago, and cancelled my clients for tonight!

Oh, kitten! This sucks beyond what words can possibly express.

kinda late??
 

Wow, kinda late to cancel? I know ticketmaster will generally send out an automated phone call or email but I bet some people are on their way or headed to dinner before the show. Too bad, I feel for those getting ready for the show. :sorry:
I hope Rod feels better for Orlando and Ft. Laud this weekend. If not, let the show go on, give me my Stevie..
Last year they cancelled Fort Lauderdale due to Rod having the flu. The next night in Tampa I thought he sounded pretty good considering. Feel better.

My husband has a friend and his wife that were going on our recommendation. Feel bad.:( Screw Rod....Stevie should just perform for whoever still wants to come.

oh well
 

guess I won't get to see both Stevie and Lindsey in the same week. Just Lindsey on Friday :distress:

I just saw where Lindsey is playing- whoa that is a small venue- how exciting!

I got back in touch with my clients and put them back on my schedule for tonight. It's like that brief manic-filled window of time never happened. :o

When do they typically announce a rescheduled date? [nevermind]

CONCERT INFO:

Due to a sudden illness and following the advice of his doctor, Rod Stewart has regretfully been forced to cancel his concert tonight with Stevie Nicks in Greensboro, NC.

The tour is scheduled to resume on Friday, August 3rd at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida. Since reuniting on July 20th, Stewart & Nicks have performed six concerts on their Heart & Soul tour this summer – all which have all been met with overwhelming acclaim from critics and fans alike.

Ticket refunds will be available from the original point of purchase starting Friday August 3. Tickets purchased via phones or online will be automatically refunded.

Forgive my ignorance, but why does Stevie have to cancel just because Rod is sick? :confused:

Rod's faking it.

This happened to me during the TISL tour (I think- maybe Enchanted?:confused:). I am so sorry for you!

she is the opening act not the headliner /co headliner ( she'd have the same on stage time as Rod)

My baby! Where have you been?:sorry::xoxo:

Rod would also cancel if Stevie was sick. It works both ways. Whether she is opening for him or not, they know that a lot of people came just to see her and they wouldn't proceed without her, especially given the length of her set.

I'm just glad Stevie's not the one who is ill.

I hope you guys get to see the rescheduled show without a hitch, especially sorry for anyone who made travel plans.

That sux.Last minute.They should of keep it on with only Stevie.She could of sing a full set.I wonder if all of their equipment was set up when he canceled they could of pulled it off.

His fans could get a half a refund if they leave during her set.

I hope she stay away from him.She don't need he sickness like she got from him last year and screwed up her appearances of IYD release .

I hope she does stay far away from him! at least I'm just pissed at rod instead of upset and worried about our girl... when I called stubhub to get a refund for the face value miracle seats the guy tried to apologize for the inconvience.. I told him it was absolutely not his fault and went on an anti-rod tirade... lmfao! he seemed to agree..:shocked:

Oh I thought is was a 50/50 type tour!

I think I understand, now. Stevie is the supporting act. Kinda stings to write that, but it's how it is I suppose.

I do seem to remember Stevie getting sick last year and Rod canceling also, so you're right about it working both ways.

Just curious though, if Stevie is just the opening act, "could" the main show (in this case, Rod) go on without her? I've never been to a concert, so I don't know how this works? :shrug:

Sting and Jill Scott
 

A few years back, went to see Sting and Jill Scott. Wn we got to the arena there was a sign stating that Jill Scott would not be performing due to illness. The show was still going on with Sting and people were given the option to attend or to get a full ticket refund.

I guess it depends on the tour arrangements. Too bad Stevie couldn't have went ahead and performed a complete set for the fans who did show up. It probably wasn't her call.

This is why I don't travel far to shows anymore, unless its a place I might want to go without the concert - like New York City. I do feel bad for all the fans, especially those who traveled, who didn't get to see Stevie. I'm sure some might not have another chance. :(

Sorry, folks, but Stevie is the opening act. She can't pull in enough people for an arena show.

I can't imagine where this figure was derived from. I was at this show and there were more than 3,384 people in attendance. And the tickets were more expensive than what's listed here.

it looks like those figures are from billboard.

Holy crap. I think there is a math problem here.

$168,576 probably not even enough to pay her crew and band.

I guess she had to sing for free for us.

They canceled in Ft. Lauderdale last time they were supposed to come here because Rod had the flu. I got refunded for my tix and now he is sick again right before Florida? I hope he is okay for Saturday. Seems like I am not meant to see Stevie for some reason :(

I hope he is ok also, however, after that cancellation last year he did sound fine the next night in Tampa. Hopefully we will see her Saturday.
In case you didn't see Stevie added a solo show in St. Pete at the Mahaffey Theater. Great venue with 2,030 seats.

I saw that, but would be tough to get off work and it's a 4+ hour drive for me. Hope Orlando goes okay tonight.

Thats one thing about Florida.The long drives.Its not like the northeast where shows are close to each other.

Sorry, folks, but Stevie is the opening act. She can't pull in enough people for an arena show.[/QUOTE]




I dont know about that.....Jones Beach holds I believe 14,000 and the only seats unoccupied was the top level which i would say holds about 1000. Also PNC was packed as was Boston. Can she do the Garden....possibly if she skipped jones beach and PNC.

i think if her ticket prices for a show at the garden were in the 85-55 range, the garden would b full. and i don't think then she should play pnc & jones beach.

i don't think she should perform at the garden this year cause of all the ny metro shows. i wonder if she'll tour solo again after the supposed mac tour next year

Sorry .I don't agree with that statement either.

It looks like an arithmetic error with the numbers somewhere.The place was packed .
All the $59 seats were sold as far as I know.The cheap seats were packed too.

Was the Ft. Lauderdale show fully sold?

Honestly, she has played Jones beach and Pnc for what like the last seven summers and she always pulls in a big crowd. Also at the Beacon show, there were so many people looking to buy tickets that night.

i'm sure fleetwood mac will perform @ msg if they tour next year. although a show at roseland would b sweet!

No
 

According to someone I talked to working at the Bank Atlantic Center last year in Lauderdale, he said ticket sales were not that good and they were already starting to drape off the upper tier sections and rear part of the arena. I can not confirm his statement but took him as honest. The next night when Rod came out in Tampa he did say he was getting over the flu in what I perceived to be a faking sick voice. He sounded fine on all the songs. There was no duets.

this was a sold out show the arena holds 10,000 people there and she was sold out was there that statement is wrong

I agree Viv she usually sells out well here at Mohegan Sun and she did this year sold out show there was not an empty seat in the house this venue holds 10,000 seats so the figures are wrong even if you I see heart show they played for $72,000 i would think if tickets don't aren't selling they cancel the show.

Guys, you can't guess seats sold by looking at seats filled at a casino show. Basically everything at a casino is a loss leader to keep gamblers on the casino grounds & feeling good about the casino -- and that includes tickets to concerts. Many of those filled seats may have been given to big gamblers for free, rather than sold at a profit.

Yes I know the casino's give away some tickets I don't think they are going to give away over 6,000 tickets free at a loss if an artist can't sell the arena they would cancel the show
they have, if an artist can't sell out they would place them in this small stage setting called the wolf den and those are free shows right in the middle of the slot machine area its a cool place. Stevie has a good following here in CT i have never seen her peform to a half empty arena here in CT it would be sold out or close to sold out. She can also perform and has back in 2010 at foxwoods mgm grand thearte which holds 3500 seats she has sold out there and she loved it there as well as she loves mohegan sun.
