    I feel like they at least have to give it a shot for Monday. I assume the decision will be made tomorrow night to move it to Sunday or not. That would be hard to do move a show that is 48hrs away just because of possible weather conflicts. I feel like they need to give Monday a shot and if it is too dangerous do it on Tuesday. They would still have plenty of time to tear it down for Thursday's game. Fenway had all of its seats pulled up and the cover taken off and put back on with plenty of time to spare between shows in 2016. 

    That said I can't make a show on Sunday so I might be a little wishful thinking with the above lol. 
    Yeah, I hear you. This is all speculation right now.  Hopefully the weather gods smile on us.

    I bet they get it in.  Live here in Chicago. We were forecast to get big rains last couple of days and they didn't happen. I'll trust our WGN TV weather boy Mr. Tom Skilling though this weekend with what he says. The dudes a Chicago institution and is usually spot on. Wunderground and Accuweather both predicting big rains on Monday.
    I hope you’re right. I’m born and raised here as well, and most of the time when the forecast is 90% heavy storms (within a few days), they’re usually pretty accurate. It’s the 50% scattered storm forecasts that are a coin toss. Let’s hope this is one of those rare misses and we’ll see what Skilling says this weekend.

    Moving a show to another night isn't anywhere as easy as some seem to think. I'll bet moving days isn't even an option. 
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    Sunday would probably never happen. MAYBE Tuesday if Monday becomes impossible. But I agree, more unlikely than likely.

    and FWIW, the dark sky forecasts for Wrigley Field are much more promising.  Saturday night looks great and calling for light rain for small window during show on Monday. I think all of this moisture coming up out of the lake is gonna push off to the east and hit Altoona.

    That plus the fact that anytime you have an outdoor event you would have to consider contingencies.  I'd guess they even have separate insurance for the costs of rescheduling vs. just canceling.

    When was the last time they played back to back nights? I know they did it once this year, but I think that was a festival, with a shorter setlist.   They typically dont plan back to backs unless they are festivals, correct?   I think they want the rest inbetween days, typically.

    OH shit this is not good.  I fly back Tuesday. Ugh. 
    If they push the show back a day, I push my flight back a day. I am not missing GA at Wrigley.
