so fan exchange is live - looks like scalpers might be scooping them up? 1 pair for Nashville, then were immediately gone.

Seems like I remember a couple of venues that they said weren’t beholden to the face value rule due to some state laws or some such.

Chicago, Columbus are the only cities that i’ve heard. Dimi hasn’t chimed in yet. If the tour is in September or October, we won’t even hear legit rumors for a while. US tours aren’t planned this far in advance.

not sure if this is the right place for this but i'm legit worried about show cancellations with everyone's favorite coronavirus at this point.

i'm genuinely not an alarmist about this whole thing, but if we end up all buying into the social distancing thing, a rock concert with thousands of people in the same building will probably be the first thing to get canceled.

i'd be really interested to hear what types of discussions they're having about this.

Who knows.

i think europe cancellations are not far-fetched

i think with the U.S. tour only 1 month away and America's love of economic rent-seeking it would take 25% death rate to cancel US shows (not happening)

again the overwhelming majority of deaths are in people over the age of 70 who either smoke, have a pre-existing condition, or live in a place with terrible pollution

We will see. It's certainly not outside the realm of possibility this thing could escalate here and lead to cancellations.

If they aren’t considering cancelling, NBA, NHL, or NCAA games, they won’t cancel a concert.

I'd guess there is zero percent chance that the non-Oakland shows get canceled, and maybe one percent chance that Oakland does.
