George Strait reschedules for this Saturday, March 3

Good news and bad news regarding the George Strait concert at the Sprint Center this past Saturday. The good news is that, if you’d been unable to attend, it’s been rescheduled for this Saturday, March 3. The bad news is that, for everyone who came from out of town, you’re kind of screwed.

Per the Sprint Center’s website, the show was canceled “due to illness” and “all original tickets […] will be honored on March 3.” Per my friends who attended, Strait came out, played two songs, said he couldn’t go on, and then walked off stage.

Martina McBride will open the rescheduled show, as she did the truncated performance this past weekend. Here’s hoping she works up a different set list for everybody seeing round 2.
