Was the venue another "f$#!ing ****hole" that they didn't realize was such until the absolute last minute?

I thought about the Lindsey show in Lincoln too when I heard this---this sucks for Omaha. I suppose alot of folks will be heading to KC now. I looked on TM and KC also has great seats all over the venue.

I am sorry to hear about this. That kind of thing is really unfortunate.

They should pull that from TM...I suppose they will when this is officially announced.

They are really alienating any fans they had there with this. I feel bad about it, after Lindsey's solo venture, even though I'm sure they have good reason this time, as Lindsey did before.

Ticketmaster is such a sess pool. You can still get tickets to shows that have been cancelled, but then cant get tickets to shows that arent. Ive been trying for months to get Springsteen tickets online and of course, have been rerouted to TicketsNow. Its nothing less than glorified scalping.

I knew that when they announced dates in Kansas City AND Omaha (especially on back to back days), one (or both) of them was going to be teetering on cancellation. Not surprised at all.

If you were going to go to Omaha, drive down to KC. Its on a Friday night, after all.

You made me laugh so hard, I started coughing. (I have bronchitis, but still, I enjoyed the laughing/coughing fit which you started.)

I come from Nebraska. Those folks are frugal with their money, still, I am sure there will be some greatly disappointed people.

Wow. This news is most deflating, not that I would have gone, but I sympathize with those who had intended to go see them at that venue.

No different then this line-up NEVER coming to your city (MINE). So no.. no sympathy from me.... Luck of the draw LOL

J/K... Yes this sucks! Sucks for the band... Sucks for the fans that were looking forward to it... Just sucks all around!

I've never seen the Mac before.. and this was going to be my first Mac concert. I was outside of Buckingham's concert in Lincoln when it was cancelled, too.

Will I ever get to see Fleetwood Mac or Lindsey or anyone? Or will they always cancel? Sigh. I'm very sad now. I think I will go cry in the corner.

i want to know where this info came from~ i am in omaha & am going to the show & when i saw this thread called the radio station that is sponsoring part of the show & my friend tom who is in charge of the booking of the shows here in omaha at the qwest center & he said he has heard nothing about the show being cancelled~

& there are still tickets for sale on ticketmaster~

i just pray it's a rumour, because i have had more shows than i'd like to remember cancelled on me by stevie & the mac~ i will be bawling my eyes out~ during her tisl tour i had won front row seats & meet & greet passes to meet stevie & my show was canelled, it crushed my world~

i will keep checking w/ my friend tom for any further details~

and no reference to cancellation on the venue site...makes sense to await an 'official' announcement.
hmmm...wonder what would happen with a thread such as this: FM Cancels Balance of Tour
