Richie not being there isn't a severe safety hazard to people getting to and from the show.

The setlist is going to suck without anything from These Days, nuff said.

Seriously guys. Looking forward to the first concert of the tour, hope to see a lot of energy from the band. Can't wait for the live stream.

Deal with a lot of snow in Australia, do you?

It's the driving that's the issue.

You're not getting it - The storm is gonna be in full gear Friday overnight until late Saturday afternoon - Zero visibility. State of Emergency. This ain't Canada. Massachusetts sucks when it comes to snow removal. They wait until the storm is over to start plowing and treating the roads.

Calling in about 30 minutes to inquire about a refund. It's a long shot but given that a state of emergency is already in affect, who knows? I love this band and would be devastated to miss this concert, but I don't want to die trying to get there.

I reckon the real issue here are American drivers.

There, boom, changed it to the problem being American.

If a state of emergency is called (which it will be), I wonder if either Ticketmaster or AEG could be held liable for any injuries caused on the road, IF they refuse to offer refunds beforehand. According to the law, if the states close the roads, the show must be cancelled. However, given that the show is on a private Indian Reservation, I'm guessing the same laws don't apply.

In any case, I still say, the band and AEG should do the safe thing and postpone the show, or offer the people a chance to get a refund. 30 inches of snow is not conditions for driving.
