The fallout continues in the concert industry. Thursday's report on cancellations and postponements around the Twin Cities included information on these shows: Kenny Chesney, Lumineers, Jason Aldean, Dan + Shay, the Drive-by Truckers, Lanco, Cloud Cult, plus numerous club gigs. Here are more updates:
Rage Against the Machine: The entire first leg of the reunited rap-rockers' first tour in over a decade has been delayed, including the quickly sold-out May 11-12 two-night stand at Target Center in Minneapolis. "We will be in touch soon about rescheduled dates," the band said in a tweet. Fans should hang onto their hard-to-come-by tickets in the meantime.
Thom Yorke: The Radiohead frontman's North American tour was supposed to kick off March 28 and land at Xcel Enerty Center on April 5, but he's now postponing the whole trek. "Ticket holders, please stand by for information on a new routing for later this year," he wrote on Twitter. "Apologies for the inconvenience."
Sturgill Simpson: The Kentucky twang-rocker scratched a handful of the first dates on his upcoming tour with pal Tyler Childers, including their two-night stand April 4-5 at the Armory in Minneapolis. One makeup date for those shows has already been set: May 13. The second show, however, has been scratched altogether, which also happened with the two-night stand in Chicago. "Ticketholders for the canceled shows will be contacted directly in the next few days," Simpson's team said in the announcement.
Reba McEntire: She's also postponing a long stretch of dates. Her May 7 show at Xcel Energy Center has already been rescheduled for July 23. Tickets for the original date will be honored that night, or refunds can be sought.
Steve Aoki: The Armory held out on this one but finally pulled the plug on the EDM guru's Saturday set, citing Gov. Tim Walz's declaration of a peacetime state of emergency. "We are exploring options to reschedule, and hope to have a new date in the coming weeks," the venue said in its statement.
Joe Bonamassa: The governor's declaration, which limits crowd sizes to 250 people, also unplugged the blues slinger's pair of Orpheum Theatre shows Friday and Saturday. They were firmly canceled, with no makeup plans, so refunds will be given.
The Revivalists: The New Orleans hippie-rockers' gig Friday night at the Fillmore has been rebooked for Oct. 23.
