Tico Times' Adam Williams reports:
Not even a little “Patience” could bring GUNS N' ROSES to Costa Rica. After the show originally scheduled for Friday at Ricardo Saprissa Stadium was canceled due to a faulty stage setup, hopes for a makeup date were dashed Monday when the band posted a statement on their Facebook page saying they would not reschedule a concert date in Costa Rica.
True to the confused, on-again, off-again nature of the events surrounding the concert since its announcement in early March, as of Monday night it appeared the show would be rescheduled. At 10:28 PM Monday night, a posting on the band's Facebook site read: “The Costa Rica show has been rescheduled for April 13th. Please note that the show will take place at a new venue.”
The post was followed by an early morning confirmation that the concert would be held at La Guácima in Alajuela on April 13th.
However, as soon as word of the rescheduled concert circulated amongst national media outlets, a third post on the Guns N' Roses Facebook page at around 11 AM extinguished fan's hopes. “Central America update: The previously announced rescheduled show in Costa Rica at La Guácima will unfortunately not happen,” the posting read.
