Roll Call - Iroquois Amphitheater - Louisville - 6/24/2022

[midwesterner]

Anyone else doing the travel package? Wondering if we are really getting in early to Friday's show, are we getting backpacks or the blanket from the spring tour and if the posters will really be diptych as mentioned on the CID site.

Web site doesn't mention which artist did the poster, only that it's limited edition, but it does mention early entry and backpacks (so that's what we'd better get). 

I hear ya. Too be honest I don't need two more backpacks, but would love the early entry on Friday. But I most did the package to avoid having to Uber and find transportation after the shows.

My wife works as a school counselor so we can always find a home for backpacks!  Definitely agree with the transportation piece having a nice air conditioned bus will be awesome after the Iroquois show.

I am and still waiting on the info email from CID. I've done their packages in the past and they usually send out checkin info, times, place etc at least a week in advance but so far nothing.

I'm sure we will get everything they promised, including early entry. That and the transportation to Iroquois were the things that made me do the package again.

I wanted an OBH but since there won't be any repeats these two shows, I'm sure there's little chance of that one, as I'd imagine it'll be saved for Saturday night.

I'll take a Rollin Back instead.

The shows have been canceled

So upset.

I feel bad for those who traveled to be here.

Try to make the most of your weekend.

See if you can get into a great restaurant, do a bourbon tour, see the waterfront anyway.

[HIGH on SOUND]

This hurts my soul. Was so ready for these two shows. The Iroquois show especially felt like it was going to be extra special. 

[walterfredo]

I'm crushed.

was about to head to the airport.

We just checked into our room at the Hyatt and while we were at the front desk we heard the news from some folks.  Gutted...

  Keeping all of yall beautiful people and Yim in my thoughts right now.  So many people in our midst have dealt with cancelled MMJ (and other) shows since our "return" from the lockdown.  With this one being a destination for those privileged enough to travel many people are suffering their 4th, 5th, 6th cancellations all from Covid.  I'm so sorry for yall that had flights and rental cars and hotels and all that.  I couldn't make it to L'ville this time, but after three other shows getting cancelled I was at least able to still catch another couple last year, and jeebus-willin' a couple more this year.  The pain is real yall and I'm with you!

Just like Bonnaroo last year, imagining all the work that went into getting these shows ready, all those local kids and artists that were going to get to have blast in front a huge adoring crowd, the crew, band families, etc. it's depressing.

I'm not usually a silver lining person, but my immediate thought for reschedule is to finally bring one or two of them amazing NEW YEAR'S EVE SHOWS to the hometown.  NYC, Denver and Boston have all had theirs, they are so overdue for it, and what a way to ring out another miserable year of infections and cancellations.  Here's to all you wonderful fans    and best wishes to Yim for speedy recovery.
