The information got here as a shock to followers particularly as each openers’ performances went f with no hitch. But as Rüfüs’s set is sort of a bit extra concerned than merely utilizing CDJs, different technical tools was required that merely wasn’t working correctly.
One the attendees on the present reached out to us and advised us, “All the assist acts performed their units and the present was offered out. They tried altering a sound board out with a brand new one between units, however the sound saved slicing out throughout intermission music. Rufus was imagined to go on at 10 (Chicago time), from what I do know, they usually got here out round 10:30] and stated they couldn’t do it. Five min earlier than they got here out, the music went out because it had been and other people began cheering actually loud. Then it got here again out once more they usually began booing, which I believe is why they determined to lastly name it.”

“We had severe technical points that began after doorways and meant we couldn’t get sound from the stage to the PA for greater than a minute with out it frequently slicing out,” they defined. “Our crew & Silver Wrapper tried all the things they might to make this present work. Sincere apologies to everybody who got here out. Refunds might be accessible, and we might be doing no matter we will to reschedule the present. Devastated. Tyrone, James and Jon.”
