I just think they couldn’t sell enough tickets , getting there 1 to 2 hours before, sitting in your car or golf cart for what ever time the show was on and then getting out of there . I mean all that to watch some talent that you coud probably see in some bar after the virus went away for the price of a couple of beers . I’ll wait for the Sharon to reopen and do like I did last night . I turned on TV and watched the film , Jazz On A Hot Summers Day a Newport Jazz Festival from 1958 there are many others like this you can watch

I agree, the tickets were not overpriced. 38 Special if they played at the Sharon, you pay a lot more than $50 a ticket. I paid $50 to see Molly Hatchet last January at the Savannah Center and they had nobody in the band who was there before '84. The music was still great. They asked $125 for Kansas at the Sharon, and the original singer Steve Walsh had retired, and $104 for Eddie Money and it was a couple of months before he died. Not much plays at the Sharon for less than a $100.

Could it be that they can't sell booze at the event and the profits that go with it? Just asking for a friend

It doesn’t matter what the music is, restricted to a golf cart or car is not the way I want to hear a music concert . I want to interact with a crowd , get up and move . In summers before this virus I went to many outdoor concerts in Boston area they are full of energy , meeting new people and people watching , I’m 81 there still fun

that's why i never considered going! @$100 a pop, it's no way worth it, esp since we are to be confined to cars/carts unless purchasing items or using the bathroom

The cancellation more than likely came about from the fear that people would not stay in their cars/carts and gather together like the idiots do now at all the “fine dining” (sarcasm intended) restaurants in TV.

You're right, that's the reason I didn't buy tickets at the reduced rate. I can't see sitting in this heat outside upright in a golf cart for a few hours. Plus the promoters are not going to reduce ticket prices that much, because the artist has the same expenses regardless of the venue. It was a good deal price-wise, it was probably lack of sales is why they cancelled. The point was, it was not over-priced.

Well everyone wishing to receive a ticket refund...your fun is just begun! It has be well over three months of waiting for my refund for Bob Seiger show. The Customer Relation Director said it will take four months to process a refund...that's correct and she will tell you how it is not their fault.... and how diligently they have been working to quickly process. Two weeks ago she said the request has been forwarded for payment..still nothing! Try it yourself at 352 750-5411 or email at Yasmeen.Stogden@thevillages.com. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!
