Well, at least now I don't have to decide between Judas Priest or The Underground TV's ""Music To the Masses" concerts - they both got cancelled!

Now I still have to juggle checking out two motorcycle runs that day (the Jeffy Showalter Memorial Run and the Heather Mallory Benefit ride), several festivals (Ebensburg's Potatofest and Altoona's Railfest), and several bands playing around the area that night I want to see as well. Decisions! Decisons! Decisions! Maybe I can clone myself by then...

hmmm, I WAS going to check that show out and stay over in Pittsburgh because I have Steelers v. Patriots tickets for the next day....but that changed when my band got booked to play somewhere that day.

JP, some big music thing going on at Blair County Ballpark that day too.

Does anyone know why the Johnny Winter show @ the Rex was cancelled? Had tickets to that. I saw a pic recently...dude looks like he's dying.

Really? I haven't heard anything about that. How did you hear this Jim?

Chris informed me that the venue operator in Titusville pulled the rug out from under the event. He tried to locate an alternate outdoor venue to stage the event, but was unsuccessful.

I had tickets to that Johnny Winter show too. I saw a web page that said he canceled his entire tour to have some king of surgury. He would have been great at the Rex. It's a crap hole the size of the Playhouse downtown Altoona. But I've seen Tower of Power and UFO twice there and that place rocks! Cheap beer Too!
