In all the concerts that I went to see GL, only one was cancelled.

Had to be in the mid 80's in Youngstown, Ohio. A very small, depressed "steel town" hit hard by imported steel.

Didn't hear that it was cancelled until we got to the city. Only about 70 miles away though so it wasn't too far.

I wonder how they decide "where to go" when doing these gigs. GL hasn't played Alabama or some of these other places withen recent memory. Why go now?
