Looking on the bright side
1) I'll get to be more familiar with the Gigaton songs when the show comes. My first listen to the album would have been on the drive to Baltimore on Friday.
2) It adds something PJ-related to look forward to. The album and the show were going to be a package deal, now I can look forward to the album, and later, the show.
3) It sucks that the show was in March in the first place. Concerts are the best in the summer. Hopefully that's when it's rescheduled for.
4) I had (foolishly) booked our Airbnb in what I was later told by friends is the most dangerous part of Baltimore. That would place it high in the running for most dangerous part of the planet. So I've cancelled that and will get something better for the rescheduled date.
Being a negative nancy
1) Maybe the virus will spread even more and the show is postponed all the way until next year.
2) I chose Baltimore over MSG based solely on the day of the week. Baltimore was a Saturday, and MSG was a Monday or Tuesday. There's no guarantee that the show will be on the same day it was originally slated for. In fact, it's unlikely.That’s also wishful thinking, I’ve already made summer travel plans and will be pissed if I miss a home show0 -

FYI - for those who booked flights on Porter Air. Spoke with them this morning. Representative said they have three options:1) Change the flight with no fee. But we don’t know when we’d change to...2) cancel it. Would be a $200+ fee and you’d have the balance as a credit for a year. Would only be about $100 towards changes flight.3) Full credit but you need to rebook within 6 months of booking. So late-July for me. That’s what I did.Boston '06

God, what a bunch of entitled fucking babies up in here.
It's life - shit happens. It's a rock concert, not life saving surgery that is being postponed (that's right, not cancelled). Wipe up your tears and move on.0 -

Disappointed that this is happening but agree it's the right move. Things with COVID-19 are going to get worse before it gets better. Given the amount of planning that goes into stuff like a tour from both the band side and the travelling fan side better to get ahead of it sooner rather than later for less disruption.
I'm a physician with a pretty large, well-respected university/health system in the northeast. We just got an email this morning that the university is shutting down any university-related travel and large group activities through 4/17 and strongly discouraging personal travel until that time as well. Not making it political but since government not setting the tone for stuff like that this is the tip of the iceberg and will see more universities, organizations, corporations, sports leagues do something similar in the next few days to get ahead of it. I have to give the band credit for getting ahead of it relative to nearly everyone else.
All the quarantining isn't necessarily going to eradicate COVID-19 but it makes a big difference in how quickly things spread and the stress on the health system etc. Limiting travel/large group activities will slow things down and allow limited things like testing kits, hospital/ICU beds to be better rationed and meet the demand. The more time they can buy to create more test kits, work on vaccine, etc. the better.

The key word there is further.
Crisis like these demand quality leadership. Every American has every right to demand it.
What we dont need is a president more concerned about "how the numbers hurt him" and not the families dealing with this illness.
If someone like Vedder is bullied into silence then who speaks up?0
