[NOT ATTENDED: January 12, 2018] Fascinator/Pond [rescheduled to May 19]
I bought a ticket for this show yesterday. Although I knew that the tour was postponed because of this message sent out on January 9:
Dear folks of the USA, we have bad news. Unfortunately the winter tour due to start this week is gonna be postponed due to visa issues. It’s nothing too serious, but the long processing time means we’ll have to wait… but we’ll DEFINITELY be seeing you soon! Believe me, we were all so stoked to come play for y’all – and lap up the good stuff in yr beautiful country that’s inspired us with so much art and music and literature and nature and food and good times – but alas… This hurts us, and we promise to come back, when we’re allowed, and spread the good stuff and share in yours and make up for lost time. We miss you. Until later in 2018, Good luck and good love, Pond.
It was actually the hubbub of the postponement that inspired me to get tickets.
UPDATE: It’s interested that even though I bought the tickets after the postponement, I received this email on May 22.
Hello –
We just wanted to send a quick reminder that you have tickets to see POND next week at Union Transfer!
Your tickets were originally purchased for their January tour but the band was forced to postpone all of their tour dates.
Your original tickets will be honored on the rescheduled date, Tuesday May 29th at Union Transfer.
You need to do nothing. Just show up w/ your original tickets.
Perhaps it’s because I bought them the day before the original show. Huh.
