there goes my sole reason to see the concert.
 

They could of atleast said "we wish Matt a speedy recovery" or something.
 

Now we all know for sure that Bloc Party and P!ATD were not meant to be after all... get well soon matt!
 

Bad news: I just called Artist Arena (who was handling the Marshals advance sale tickets) and they are unwilling to give refunds as of right now. Sadly, I have two tickets to both the Portland and Seattle shows that I no longer need. Hope this problem will be fixed. =(
 

Do they mean starting at the Rochest New York show, or the Madison Square Garden one? Someone please get back to me on this one ASAP.

My week depends on it! :(
 

Fuck!

So cruel for this to happen only 10 days away from the date I was supposed to see them. :(

Ah well, maybe next year.

I'm going to try and get a refund from ticketmaster, who haven't updated their site to show the cancellation.
 

10 days? Try 2 days rofl.

That's me.
 

this day couldn't get any worse.

i hate the world.
 

A newer concern is... has Alwaysnewdepths gone?!
 

i feel for you american fans :(

was just gonna come and ask about and... so it's not just me.
 

i doubt that AlwaysNewDepths is gone... the billing prolly got messed up, it's happened before.
 

A.N.D. is not gone. Just probably another billing problem. It'll all be fine in a bit. Don't worry abouti it. And ignore my past question, I was still in denial about the cancellations.

:(
 

From this post, I gathered that Bloc Party aren't going to be playing at ANY of the shows. Including mine and your's (Storm&Stress's). Please let me have assumed wrong....
 

No, Bloc Party will not be playing at any shows. At all.
 

Are we sure the AND thing isn't to do with the leak?
 

Pretty sure. The only reason AND would be shut down is if everyone leaked the album on to there and I don't think any one did.

No, I think this is just a billing problem. It'll probably be back up within a couple of days. It's happened before.
 

SHIT! that sucks for all you guys that still have to see the concert. But whatever is the best for Matt. really do hope he recovers fully and is able to play again.
 

yeah...the bill hasn't been paid for AND again - nothing to do with the leak! I'll contact the guy who pays the hosting if it's not up in a day or two
 

shit atleast you people get a head notice, i arrived at the stadium and found out the hard way
 

Really, the only reason I was going to the show. Now I get to see the Snakes on a Plane guys!!! Yayyy!!!! :( This sucks. Get well soon, Matt!
 

Well.. this would have been my second Bloc Party show so I'm not entirely dissapointed...

Cobra Starship though? Hmmm, the tour just got even more confusing! WAH P!ATD what the *@#*! are you doing??

Anyhoo...

I want Matt to recover because he is one of the best young drummers around and that only comes once in a dog millenium.
 

Well, you dont get a refund, there's always eBaby. You shouldn't but it's P!ATD. Anyway I hope and gets back up soon, there are things I'd like to post.
 

I REALLY hope that they reschedule the shows that they are missing in the new year and add some more CANADIAN DATES!

Baaaahhhh. I really wanted to see them, even if it was like 7 songs.
 

I'm starting up a AWITC fanspace but I'm not sure if I should say something here or wait until AND is back online and start a thread about it.
 

i love P!ATD and all.
but what the hell?
wheres the
"we hope he's ok" or
you know.?
GAHHHHR.
have they no sympathy for he best drummer?
kashdhsadsad
fldshyfdfdsghj

Australia needs you!

-dyz_./
 

=/ I was really excited that they're going to come back again! I missed them twice already. Well Matt's health is more important. I hope he gets well soon. Other than that I don't know what to do with the tickets.
 

I drove my very pregnant wife 3 hours on Saturday to see them. we were going to leave when panic started. The marquee still showed their name! we sat thru the replacement band (who sucked) before we realized what was going on...very disappointing.

Get well soon, Matt. come back to Virginia, i'll find a babysitter.
 

i agree to the last post. i hope you get better matt. bloc party needs to come to michigan asap though. preferable the breslin center in east lansing, mi.
 

"Ticket refunds will be made available at point-of-purchase."

Went to the concert tonight and although I knew they wouldn't be there it was still sad to not see them. If it weren't for my cousin wanting to see Panic! I would have asked for my $$ back. Can't wait until Bloc Party comes back to the states - they put on a great show!
 

I'm already disappointed enough about not being able to see the band in Rochester NY, but I am learning now that refunds are not in fact available, as the website indicates. Both Ticketmaster, and the venue itself, have told me the promoter decided not to refund tickets. I think that's just tacky. Sadly, I'm out the $180 I spent on four tickets, and one of them was a birthday present for one of my best friends! The venue's box office people told me I should come down and try to sell the tickets to someone at the door, but I live 80 miles away in Buffalo. And I can't really convince my friend, who's celebrating her birthday, that an 80-mile drive down the I-190 and an evening of scalping tickets would be a fun way for her to celebrate. Too bad; the only reason we got the tickets in the first place was Bloc Party, not Panic! At the Disco. And now I'm gonna have to resort to doing what I always do when I'm pissed off...listen to Hole's CD, Live Through This.
 

It doesn't matter what those websites are saying. There are no refunds available. They're lying.
 

We only bought to see Bloc in Vancouver, B.C. and ticketmaster said no refunds since the promotors replaced bloc party...can't Panic or Bloc party help us get our money back?

We feel entirely ripped off and bitter with the promoters.

But we sincerely wish Matt a speedy recovery.
 

i'm the biggest mug of all. I bought tickets x 2 at twice face value. No refunds from those gangsters in stubhub.com. Just because I'm Irish doesn't make it ok to be a gombeen man...

I've lost 120 dollars on these suckers.
