    Refund funds of cancelled shows.

    in Just A Fan

    Posted

     I requested a refund on 5/1/2020.  For over a month, following message still appears on my ticketbastard account page:

     

    "If you’ve submitted a request, we’ll be reviewing it as soon as possible and will reach out with any updates along the way."

     

    Emailed ticketbastard yesterday, and recieved the following message this morning:

     

    Thank you for contacting us regarding your request. We see your order was refunded on 05/19/20 for the amount of $ 232.70 back to the card ending in ****7453.  If you have not received your refund you may need to contact you financial institution for further assistance.

     

    Does this mean there is a god?

     

    I'm sure they are inundated with requests and weren't staffed to handle that kind of thing. 18 days between request and refund actually doesn't seem that bad to me.

    2020 Touring

    Unless Illinois' re-opening plan changes the show in Chicago will need to be rescheduled until after a vaccine is available. I wonder if they'll attempt a tour with SK and perform in states with looser gathering restrictions??

    Jason Narucy, Chicago musician (his own current band is called Split Single and he is the current bassist for Bob Mould and Superchunk) had a musical based on his teenage punk band Verboten at the House Theatre of Chicago. I was hoping to get there to see it. Obviously, that's not happening, but they did make a stream available for a pay as you wish ticket (min. $15). I just bought mine after being reminded that this is the last day tickets are available. You have one week after your purchase to view it.

     

    Here's the Chicago Tribune review:

    Maybe the best stones song since the 70's, which isn't saying much I guess. Don't care for the auto tune bullshit on Mick's vocals. Enjoy the all to brief harmonica. 

     

    It's not doing it for me. And I definitelky think they've done better since the 70s: Emotional Resuce (the song), She's So Cold, Start Me Up, Love is Strong, You Got Me Rocking, The Worst, Out of Control, Saint of Me, I could name a few more even deeper cuts.

    Thanks for recapping these! I tend to catch a little each night but not all. We are fortunate that they are doing these each night.

     

    I'm sort of curious if they'll ever cover a song from the last 20 years.

    R.E.M. 1980-2011??

    Ok. I'll play. I was late to the REM arriving for Monster tour in Ann Arbor which was fantastic.

     

    Went to Blossom in OH to see them & Wilco Summerteeth era and we were on the lawn. The sky opened up raining cats and dogs for the It's the End of the World encore which I still vividly remember 22 years later.

     

    Made a Wilcation out of the 2003 shows where Wilco opened for REM in Vancouver and Seattle and wow were those great shows for both bands.

    Yesterday, looking for an pandemic activity, 3 Wilco fans and I drafted and created a 10 song album of Wilco (+Mermaid) originals. Your vote matters. Who did it best? Also, what song would be your first pick?
