Well, that was an experience I guess?
2.5 hours sitting in bucketing rain and lightening, then they sent us back to our cars for half an hour with promises the band would start at 9, then they pulled the plug at 9 and sent us all home with promises of a refund.
Admittedly, probably a fair call, but they should have done it an hour earlier.
We learned a few things.
- that old tarp in the garage that you took for shelter? Yeah, it’s not waterproof.
- the camping chairs you took to sit on? Yep, they are waterproof. After half an hour we each had our own personal swimming pool to sit in. Scrotal baths are nice and all, but there is a time and a place.
- my kid learned that skinny denim jeans shrink when wet. His voice had risen about an octave by the end of the night.
From reading their website, they’ve postponed 2 shows due to weather, 4 due to band members having covid, and they’ve postponed the entire New Zealand leg. Not going well for a final tour!
