Eric Church Cancels Concert to Attend Final Four

article image placeholderCountry star Eric Church cancels concert so he can watch UNC-Duke in Final Four
He cancels his concert, announces instead he's going to go to the NCAA Final Four. This has infuriated his fans. And I had really two thoughts around this one. I think it's absurd. I think it's absolutely absurd. When you sell tickets to a concert, I think you're entering a contract with your fans that you are going to perform on that given night

Unless something serious comes up, like injury or death, I mean, you need to be there. And frankly, shouldn't he have thought about the possibility of them going that far in the tournament and therefore not scheduling anything on a potential game day? That's kind of how I would think of it. Granted, that might not be, like, under his control, but he's a pretty famous artist, so I could imagine if you told them like, hey, leave this day open

Taylor, I want to answer your question on, you know, couldn't he have reserved this day? It would have been pretty ridiculous, too. And I don't think anybody would have recommended that. And there's really no way that he could have foreseen this happening, especially the match up going against your arch rival rival. These two teams have never played each other in the NCAA tournament, even though they are arch rivals

If I was going to the concert and he did that, I'd probably be pretty upset. So I'm not in those people's shoes. So I really can't cast judgment as much, but like transparency, but kind of hate what he did

I feel like it's really upsetting because, you know, these fans, viewers set aside time and money to attend your concert, and this is how you treat with them. It's crazy to me, but I know I would be upset. I mean, fans are already upset whenever artists are late to a concert. I can't imagine how upset they are or hitting fans are for canceling to attend the final four
