Cancelled show -- I've lost alot of respect for Sum....

whitey182 · Post by **whitey182** » Sat Oct 20, 2007 12:15 am

i travelled 4 hours to the small city of Red Deer, AB tonight listening to Underlcass Hero...i get into the city, flick on the radio for the first time:

"...and at the last minute...Sum 41 has backed out of tonight show at Red Deer's Enmax Centrium...the group has a member with the flu and is unable to perform..." -- the radio DJ, chuckled "...thats dedication"

which is true, i know the group played last night in Grande Praire, AB --- and i'm sure this is not a life threatning sickness --- sometimes egos and a sneeze/cough need to be set aside in the best interest of the fans and the bands reputation

i'm very disappointed and very skeptical on this one members flu

ha, fuck this is retarded...

Flu my ass.

Deryck was probably partying and has a hangover, and would rather see Avril than play.

Maybe you should track them down and kill their families?
Or try and get your money back.

Yeah, this was supposed to be my first Sum 41 show ever and I was so pumped. I was so disappointed when they fucking cancelled. I withdrew $200 in cash for all the shit I wanted to buy.

Fucking Sum 41, build up your immune system next time you guys go on tour. Take your flu shots and drink you fluids (water). I'm soo disappointed and so pissed off right now. I'm getting a full refund because I don't give a shit about no-name band Die Mannequin and Finger Eleven. It's times like these I wish I were also a fan of Finger Eleven, then I wouldn't be as bitchy as I am right now.

I'm pretty sure Deryck was the one to get sick. He's the sick guy of the band.

Yeah maybe in the next three years. I wouldn't expect you to know or anyone else for that matter. You can't talk until you've been what other have been through.

Read again, there wasn't any dissing of Sum 41.

Yeah, okay but the next train won't arrive until 7:15pm 2010 probably. And I don't know about you, but that's a long time to wait for "just one show". It's easy to say it's just one show. And when you're so excited to see the first show ever of your favorite band only to find out it's cancelled you can't help to be a little angry at the whole thing.

Who said anything about it ruining my life? Dude, I found out only a couple of hours ago! The concert hasn't even started yet in Red Deer.

So sorry for being someone who doesn't get over things with the snap of a finger, Jesus Christ. It's like you didn't even read what I said in that post.

You're practically saying that it's not okay for me to be pissed off right now.

How can you possible say "give them a break" it's not Gunner's fault that they booked a show for that day... it is okay for him to be pissed off because he could not see something that he was expecting so much, I would be even more pissed if that happens to me! Don't say like "hey calm down" to Gunner and whitey182, they are in their right to get mad obviously...

Post by **Jeremy Kill** » Sat Oct 20, 2007 2:15 am

I hope they reschedule too. I would rather wait six months than another few years to see them. Seriously the last time I could've gone an seen them was back in 2004 when Chuck came out. I regretted not seeing them back then which was why I was so excited to see them tonight.

But I'm sure if everyone's favorite band cancelled a show on them it wouldn't just be "Oh well, there's always next time" -- without any emotion whatsoever. I mean if you like the band as much as you do, you're going to be affected by it.

Oh I'll get over it for sure. But don't expect me to be over it three hours after I find out about it! Give me a few days. But yeah, I'm glad there's people that would be in the same boat as me. :)

dude, ya im kinda skeptical on it too -- when was avirls bday and shit? hasnt she been on the road with them and what not?

...i just look at as...theyre playin in regina in a few days and they're probably in the state of mind of -- "hey Reginas gonna be huge and Red Deer is gonna be a small -- id rather take er' easy now then jeopardize a huge venue"

...its very rare for one of your favorite bands to come around to a small city such as Red Deer and to call in sick just seems odd..i'm eagerly awaiting what the press says tomorrow and what Exactly happend...or whom is sick & with what...
