Coming out of hiding to discuss the events of this evening in Dublin.
1. Cancelling a show this close to doors can sometimes be d/t an emergency and this freaks me out. Typically, you’ll get notice a few hours before on a true illness, which makes me suspect something bad could have happened. (Experience here).
2. The venue and promoters posted about the cancellation but the band did not, which further makes me worry.
However….
The track record of CATB is looming over me. The band never announced Bondy or Bob’s departure, or a 5 year disappearance so why would this be any different? That’s the glass half empty side of me speaking and I normally don’t think that way. I’m gonna push that aside and be positive here and hope for everyone’s well being.
My heart goes out to all of you who travelled so far and were so excited for this. It’s devastating.
Doing my best not to speculate too hard and I urge us all to do the same. Going back to comment 1, I strongly worry about something serious happening that caused this…let’s hope everyone involved is okay.
I’ll be back with more posts, soon. I miss you all.
Received my first notification from Livenation regarding the cancelled show in Cincy. I have a feeling I’ll get more as the cancellations continue to roll in. I would like to share my thoughts about this when I have time to sit down and write them out, and I promise they are respectful and polite. I don’t know another way to be, and frankly, I’m not the type of person who allows things to get me down too much.
To everyone in the fandom who has kept things alive here over the last 6 years, I know it’s been tough and we’ve been let down before with cancellations and have felt all these feelings, but I’m not going anywhere and I’ll be here till the end. Let’s just hope that everyone is truly okay in the band. 💓
