GNR_RNR Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 1 hour ago, allwaystired said: Most of them certainly are cancelled as local Governments have banned concerts (see the first post in this thread). They're cancelled in terms of the event won't go ahead but they are not yet legally cancelled. Most likely rescheduled for next next year will be the goal. 29 minutes ago, Gavin82 said: The longer this goes on its getting postponed if they was going too cancell it they would just do so its going too be a 2021 now. Yeah seems that way especially after they rescheduled the South America dates. I assume they would have to give back whatever their fee was (or at least a chunk of it) if the event is officially cancelled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the events would be illegal to be held...so surely that counts as legally cancelled? Any way you look at it, it's really fucking bonkers that tickets are still being sold, and no mention has been made anywhere about shows not happening, when we know 100 per cent they won't be. They've got a whole 29 days left until it starts......I'm almost tempted to hold a betting book as to how close they'll get to the first date before making any official announcement! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically not as lock downs 'could' in theory be lifted (even though they won't be). It is crazy shows are still on sale but I'm guessing that is part of the ULA between artists and Ticketmaster. Assuming there's some kind of fee to put shows on TM and that they cannot pull shows without giving refunds?? (but this is pure speculation as I've never put on a show through ticketmaster ).

There's no 'technically' about it. Governments have announced bans. They're not happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well no there is a technically to be added to the consideration (But that's not why there hasn't been an announcement yet). They'll be working hard to see if they can reschedule the shows for next summer and set up routes and such for a potential tour. Many other artists are also in the same boat and have not announced what is happening with shows yet. We'll know soon enough, it seems more likely they're looking for new dates as it's been taking a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said above, they've got 29 days to tell people these shows are absolutely not happening on their scheduled dates, because they absolutely aren't. There's really nothing further to say.

Gavin82 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 They still have a good 10 days too 2wks too say anything The Who did the same for there UK Arena tour pulled it under 4wks too go keep tixs for the coming March. Either way its a refund or money back no 1 will lose out as such its getting postponed & they working on dates for 2021 if it was being cancelled just they say that they need not wait for anything its as simple as that.

Blackstar Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Live Nation UK replied to someone who commented on GnR's tweet with the LN announcement about refunds for the NA shows. Apparently it's on Live Nation. The band can't update on refunds if LN has't done anything. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circusboy666 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Just saw refunds will be approved for cancelled AND re-scheduled shows. I’m sure there is fine print in there somewhere however... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
