Give an unskilled man Microsoft Paint and this is what you get.
If you were planning on seeing the veteran NYC ska band The Slackers Tuesday at Mountain’s Edge in Bend, you’re out of luck. It’s not happening.
I know. I’m bummed, too.
The show appeared solidly booked for a long time, but in the past few days, I spoke to Ben Mann (who originally booked the gig) and Mountain’s Edge General Manager Buck Bales (who took over the deal when Mann stepped away a while back) and both said it’s officially, assuredly canceled.
The reason? A mishmash of miscommunication too murky to bother with here. Over the last several days, though, I’ve seen quite a bit of chatter about the show online, so I thought it was worth some Frequency ink to make sure everyone’s clear: No Slackers in Bend Tuesday night.
ALSO: Tonight’s show at Mountain’s Edge by California ska/punk band the Voodoo Glow Skulls is still on. There’s been some confusion on this one, too, but it is happening, and it’s happening tonight. Things will kick off around 8 p.m. with openers Tuck And Roll and Danger Death Ray, and cover is $10.
mmm people are still sending me messages about this show and I have been sending them your link. Mountain’s Edge will certainly be seeing a little extra traffic Tuesday night… from confused wannabe concert attendees.
Yeah … I had to post something, I thought. Lots of people think this is happening. Thanks for sending them the link, Janettenoel!
