On Monday night a packed house at the Vaught-Hemingway Stadium in Oxford, Miss got some real bad news. Their concert was canceled because the singer lost his voice.
Country singer Morgan Wallen was set to come on stage in just minutes when the news was delivered via a loud voice and a message on a screen. And fans were FURIOUS. Like so so mad.
One such fan named Brandi Burcham filed a class action lawsuit “on behalf of herself and all other similarly situated” patrons who attended the show.
I 100% support this suit. Brandi’s concern is that even though they are refunding fans for the ticket, they won’t be refunded for all the other expenses incurred. Like those who drove in from out of town, baby sitters, parking costs, etc.
“Even if ticket prices are refunded, no offer has been made to reimburse concertgoers for other out-of-pocket expenses they incurred in connection with the concert cancellation, including transportation, lodging, food, merchandise sales, transaction fees and other such expenses,” the plaintiff added.
The “Last Night” crooner, 29, called off the fifth date of his One Night at a Time World Tour after opening acts Hardy, Ernest and Nate Smith had already performed, disappointing approximately 60,000 attendees, many of whom took to social media to air their grievances.
