Awww, very sorry for anyone who was going.

Why is it cancelled?
Couldn't sell enough tickets? Surely not.

Hmm... that's no good! Sorry for anyone who was planning on going.

I don't know for sure but I think it was not selling well. Good lowers have been available since the on-sale back in January. They have only been to this market twice in 25 years so this is a stunner to me.

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.

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.

that makes me sad that you would say that~ actually the venue is only 5 years old & is huge & gorgeous & i was told when i saw the mac there in '03 that they really liked the venue & it was nearly sold out if not real close~

Maybe the reason the band hasn't frequented that market often is now self-evident: there simply is not a big draw for them there...or at least not enough to meet specific quotas.

I'm not saying youre wrong, but I think it's innapropriate that you posted this before there was more of an official announcement.

Yeah, at least FM77 could have said that it's rumoured to be cancelled in the title of the thread.

Strictly you could have said FM77's wrong: there is no cancellation official. Until that, one can look at it as a lie.

Inapropriate indeed.

David, I agree with you. I stick by my post but I thought the announcement was coming yesterday. My intentions were not malicious; I am a huge Mac fan and know many people who were planning on going to this show. Apologies to the board.

Hey it's ok. You dont seem like a troll at all. Everyone makes mistakes. Hopefully this will be cleared up soon, one way or another.

YEah, I looked on TM today and nothing came up on the floor at all, not even for 1 ticket, so that is a good sign. I'm sure some of those front seats are blocked off until nearer showtime to sell as part of that ILAA package. ANd we all know how that's gone...
