We got the news this morning that the Journey, Pat Benetar, Loverboy show originally scheduled for this Saturday will be postponed until early 2013.  Here is an excerpt from the press release.  HANG ON TO THOSE TICKETS!  I always put mine on a sturdy magnet on my fridge.

"Journey Singer Arnel Pineda has been diagnosed with severe laryngeal and esophageal inflammation and is under doctor’s orders not to perform for the next week.  The JOURNEY tour will resume on Friday, November 16, 2012 at the BMO Harris Bradley Center in Milwaukee, WI.

Tickets for the above-mentioned postponed concerts will be honored for the new concerts which will be rescheduled for January/February 2013.   Refunds can be obtained at point of purchase. 

SMG Grand Rapids knows this may inconvenience many patrons, so we’d like to remind people who’ve already made accommodations that they are more than welcome to join us for the Wine, Beer and Food Festival beginning today and running through Saturday evening at DeVos Place. Patrons with tickets to Journey are offered a free admission to the Wine, Beer and Food festival with one purchase of admission. Receive two tickets for the price of one! Patrons are advised to show their tickets at the box office when purchasing."
