MAngy Moose show JAckson Hole, Wyoming.

[senatorgreaves]

Took off two days of work and drove 12 hours round trip.

No Show!

No refunds!

Fuck Me!!

[Smellis]

HOLY SHIT!! What happened, what gives? The venue must have done something to default on their deal with the band??

[FantoMANKY]

You beat me to it, I just got home also.

I've been to the Mangy Moose, but only during Ski season. I wonder if the slopes are open there yet. Too bad the show didn't happen.

[senatorgreaves]

It was a weird place for them to be playing on a Monday night in the fall.

[FantoMANKY]

Hopefully they do a make up show sometime in a not so out of the way place...(Salt Lake or Boise maybe?)  I was hoping they would atleast apologize or something, I cant believe one of my favorite bands in the world would pull this crap.  I think you are right, not enough advance tickets sold so they bagged it.  Problem is they probably knew it days if not weeks ahead of time they'd be doing this.  I wouldve tried to make Montana or Colorado if Id known.  Atleast I couldve cancelled my lodging for the past few days and saved alot of time and money. 

[senatorgreaves]

Yup.  I was pretty disapointed. Like you said, " Not cheap staying in Jackson Hole."

Dropped alot of cash on these guys in the past.  Pretty crappy way to treat your fans.

[duster]

That is serious horse shit.

[Chief Ten Beers]

 Man, that really sucks. The funny thing is Buzz would probably tell all of you pissed off out of towners who travelled and are already getting Melvins in your own town to get a life or something. They're not the Grateful Dead or Phish.

[senatorgreaves]

That's the deal.  They skipped my town this time around.  Thats why I went.  No way would I haul my ass up to Jackson Hole before ski season.


The crazy thing is. 

The night before, while we were out on the town, I predicted that the show would get canceled.

I find it hard to believe they can hold a refund on you.
legally someone owes you guys some money.

I wouldn't let that rest.  call the venue and ask where your refund is at.  if not, call a lawyer or police.

[senatorgreaves]

I just sent a email to Etix.com.  That's the service the Mangy Moose website uses. We will see if that works.  Still a drop in the bucket compared to the time, energy and cash spent on getting up there.

 If the Buffalo show gets cancelled, I'd hit Cleveland the night before or Troy NY the following week. Not going to happen though, after a painful 10 yr absence, Buffalo is going to show the Melvins love.

Surprised they'd pull that though, after hearing that '99 Idaho show for 15 or so people. I figured the Melvins were of the Chuck Dukowski philosophy: If you're playing for either 10 or 1,000 people you make it worth it for whoever shows up and don't just hit the timeclock.

[senatorgreaves]

Well you never know.  Maybe it was a bus malfunction.  Still seemed pretty hinky to me.  Or maybe I am just so bent out of shape I wanted to blame somebody.

BLAST!
