What about the people who paid $30k for tickets on the aftermarket? They've got to be pooping their pants right about now! It's exactly why I will never buy tickets on the aftermarket.

I sold my two tickets on StubHub for a nice profit. Whoever bought them is stuck with them UNLESS the event is actually canceled (not postponed).
If it does get canceled, TicketMaster refunds me what I paid and whoever bought them on StubHub can get a refund for what they paid.
If it does get rescheduled - no refund for whoever bought them on StubHub.

Damn. That means this could be dragged out for years.

I'd imagine that's why they postpone these things instead of canceling them. The folks who paid $30K will get to see a show instead of getting a $200 refund.
The difference between fiction and reality is that fiction is supposed to make sense.

Or get put in a bad spot because of the date they didn’t sign up for. Her video makes it seem more likely it’s because she’s mentally unstable than because of COVID, perhaps the instability as a complication of COVID.

It very well could! I know someone who just went to a Reba concert last weekend that was originally scheduled for two years ago!

There are several large tours from the Spring/early Summer of 2020 that have been postponed.

My wife apparently still has tickets to Motley Crue/ Def Leppard from two years ago. Rescheduled for this coming August.

Adele appears to have some high maintenance issues. The stories out here for demands of better equipment, better video boards, better sound systems have been rampant.
The cancellation/postponement was late, imo. Far too late.
