I'll drop it at this. Jon's in charge. I think he's dead wrong to go on with this show. Even if some people can get there, many who were planning on using the limited public transportation to the casino now can not. They'll be out the money. For those driving, the roads are going to be treacherous. The main highway going to Mohegan is a horrible road with very little light as it is. To say "You have a choice - Take a chance on your safety and go, or don't go" is wrong. Any band worth their weight has open dates for reschedules. And if they don't, no one is going to be pissed about them cancelling. It's perfectly understandable. If I were a single guy with no family, maybe I'd chance it. But I'm not about to risk leaving my family alone to go to a concert. Make all the jokes you want. 2-3 feet of snow is not something to mess around with driving in. I really hope Jon does the right thing and follows the lead of the transportation services and other events that have already rescheduled or cancelled. Accidents can obviously happen any time, but there could be several from this storm. How will Jon answer the question if that occurs and he didn't cancel - "Jon, why when it was well known that a treacherous blizzard was forecast for the weekend, public transportation was cancelled and the governor declared a state of emergency, did you not reschedule or cancel the show for the safety of your fans?"
I was really looking forward to this show. No opening act, hearing new material I'd never heard before. But common sense has to win out, and common sense says safety first.

Good Luck!! Hopefully it can work out and you do end up going. Everyone I know whose going are going. No one has cancelled any of their plans, they have just changed them (going now a day earlier)
