Not prophecy, but we all have seen the deception and lies. Hoping for the tour but surely will not be surprised if they kill it.
The NHL is not counting on 66 full arenas.
This is still not without its risks. Over the last ten days, almost a dozen concerts have had their shows cancelled because the arenas are having trouble staffing them. And attendance is still a concern for both social distancing and public confidence reasons. And of course if a governor decides that they are seeing a spike and shuts down their state, the shows in that state could be at risk. All that being said, it seems TSO is moving forward with an arena tour and cancelling their booked theater dates.
