Refunds Coming To Cancelled BRET MICHAELS Concert Ticket Holders
March 10, 2011, 13 years ago
Megan Coleman from Cnycentral.com is reporting that fans who bought a ticket to see POISON's Bret Michaels perform in Syracuse only to find the show cancelled, will now get their money back according to a release issued to CNY Central by Attorney General Eric Schneiderman.
According to the AG's office, anyone who bought a ticket for the cancelled concert will be reimbursed by Aloha Events, the concert promoter that initially failed to provide restitution. According to the agreement, anyone who paid cash for the August 2010 Bret Michaels show will be refunded for the tickets they purchased. If you paid online using PayPay services, you will get a credit on your account.
The concert was supposed to take place at the Syracuse Regional Market on August 5th. Aloha Events, LLC, owned by Michael Banks, promoted and sold tickets for the concert. The AG's office says the company failed to make two advance payments to Michaels, but continued to sell tickets up until the day before the show. The concert was then suddenly cancelled when Banks couldn't pay Michaels in full.
Michaels later reportedly sued the concert promoter. Jilted fans even set up this Facebook page for those looking to file a class action lawsuit against the promoter.
