      From: vittorix@gmail.com              The concert of yesterday (May 11) was cancelled and I'm so pissed off.       It was my first DM concert :(       I'm going to write to ticketmaster 'cause I want my money back.              Thanks so much for your reporting.       I'm afraid about Dave conditions now. Hope he is well now. but today's       concert is cancelled too..              --       ciao       Vittorix              bubbleboy wrote:       > Uh, maybe you will read this by the time of tonite's show, but I       > would be very caveat-ish about tonite's show.
