Update regarding Covid-19 and its potential impact on MDF:
It has been 8 days since our last post regarding this. In pandemic terms, that feels more like a month, as the situation has obviously gotten worse on a global scale. We, like everyone else, are watching all of this unfold. We are very much aware of the border closures, travel restrictions, lock downs, and the potential impact that this could have for both attendees and bands.
We need your understanding, patience, and support more than ever right now. Everything we've dedicated the last 18 years of our lives to is at stake, so we're asking everyone to trust that any final decision made will be in the best interest of everyone involved.
One thing we'd like to forbid around here is the use of the world 'cancel'. This is NOT an option, as unrecoverable money is heavily invested into these bands and we simply cannot cancel it and abandon it. However, we do need everyone to start to process the reality of possibly postponing the event to a later date. Should this occur, we would be able to retain about 90% of the line-up (and replace any bands who can't play new dates), rather than waiting this out until the last minute just to deal with the nightmare of possible extended government restrictions, many bands canceling, and many attendees not being able to attend.
We are working tirelessly on this, barely sleeping, and hoping we all find a way to get through this together. Producing this event is an enormous undertaking as is without a global pandemic unfolding before our eyes, so we appreciate your support and understanding during this dark time. We will update you again as soon as humanly possible once more progress has been made on our end, as we know the uncertainty of the situation has everyone on edge.

Yeah it's been postponed until an unknown time. Possibly late summer but I'm willing to bet it's just not happening this year. I got refunded all my money (except my ticket to the show, which will probably be honored whenever it does happen) so I don't really care.

I honestly think we won't see any concerts or sporting events with fans for the rest of the year. It's unfortunate but too many big regions have been hit hard by this. It will take a while to recover.

Also, if aliens were to invade us they would have done it by now. There's no way they would wait this long if they already have the technology to come here and destroy everything.

Well, what else are we supposed to do right now? Go about our usual business and risk infecting millions with a disease there's no vaccine for yet? There really isn't any other way to stop it currently except for everyone to be out as little as possible.

There really isn't any other way to stop it currently except for everyone to be out as little as possible. Im not sure but there has to be something better than pulling the covers over our heads and closing our eyes tightly Without a vaccine for a potentially fatal, highly contagious disease that one person can easily infect two or three others with very quickly there really isn't a better solution than what we're doing currently. This is the only way to stop the spread. If there was a better way to do it, the governments around the world would certainly be doing it. But all of them are following a similar plan because those are the policies in place for these kind of situations. Maybe when all this is done, different ideas on how to deal with something like this in the future will be implemented. For right now, what we're doing is all we've got.

Stopping the spread isn't what they're doing. This is just round one. But it is the only thing they can do while the vaccine is invented, tested, and produced. There'll be no gigging for some time yet. But don't worry adamclark52 you'll be the first of all of us to get to see shows again. When the restrictions are eased so that less than 20 people can be together at once, all the shows you go to will be back on.

That's cutting it close for old tatertot. Not really. Over a month to go until it was originally taking place, and since everyone knows it'll be postponed, his people will be waiting until they've confirmed the new dates before saying anything. After all "tour postponed" isn't news anymore. The only one I care about hurrying up to make their decision is Rammstein, because I need to book specific travel for that one. The rest I don't.

Tate has now rescheduled, but the idiot tour promoters have scheduled the London date on the same night as Hollywood Vampires at the O2 Arena, Saxon/Krokus/Diamond Head at Hammersmith Apollo, and The Quireboys at The Forum. So no one will go.
