NKOTB snubs the Rose City. anonymous October 15 2008, 16:11:53 UTC

Yeah, I hear ya. I got the same email last night. I live in Lexington, KY and took personal time out of my schedule to call Ticket master the minute they opened sales for the concert-- and I got amazing seats! I bought these tickets as a surprise birthday gift for my best friend in Portland (who has always been a NKOTB fan but never had the chance to see a concert in the 80's 90's)and I planned to fly out and take her. I got my concert tickets months ago and just booked my flight out to Portland on Saturday... Too bad my flight is non refundable. Guess I'll do my best to find some tickets for the Tacoma concert. But I agree, Portland totally got the shaft.

First, thanks for replying to my rant. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who thinks Portland got screwed over. I'm sorry to hear about the non-refundable plane ticket. I don't know why the NKOTB didn't consider that fact when they made the poor decision of canceling one of their shows for non-weather-related reasons. This is a reunion show, they had to have known many of their fans would come from all over to see them live, buying plane tickets and reserving hotel rooms. It's just in poor taste.
