Whatever the reason for the change, I am happy that certain venues were changed and am hoping that meets and greets will be added to the super expensive tickets now...Smiley

The hunter valley accommodation prices were pumped up because of the show and were generally listed as 'non refundable;', therefore many of us are out of pocket - in my case $495, then you add the changing flights $178 and the hoping that friends who were coming originally, can go now...yikes. Looks like will have to get a refund for Adelaide and Hunter Valley just cover my losses. Sad

Will we get the option to get a refund if we are unable to attend the new dates? How does this work with the super expensive tickets [$500-$600+] I bought that I want to keep - are we guaranteed the same spots, I'd be devastated if I got worse seats? Will they reissue the tickets with the correct venues, dates, times and rows on them? How will that work with the Hunter Valley ones? I really want to finally get to see Mr Mellencamp - 3 times before I had to get a refund [due to personal illness or injury]or the show was cancelled and refunds given - please not a 4th time! Smiley

 Thanks for your time and sorry for all the questions, no harm intended and I hope John is well and this was not because he is unwell. Syl

Direct your questions to the promoter The Dainty Group, they will work with both ticket sellers to map over the tickets to correspondingly close sections in the new venue to their best ability. I suspect you will get a refund for the ticket difference.

Keep us in the loop at [email protected] if you have any questions, but I think at this point don't expect to hear much until early January with the holidays coming up.

You can get a refund if you can't make the new scheduled date. Dainty Group is the promoter on this group and they are the point people for assistance and questions since they are the local expert on the venues and ticket sellers.

Hi Tony.   Just wondering if you can shed some light.

I am still waiting to hear from venue as to what the go is with tickets purchased for Feb, then noticed last night that tix go on sale today for re scheduled show. I cant afford to purchase tix "just in case" but desperately dont want to miss the concert.  I emailled Dainty Corp to ask them, but their reply is that they are closed for the Christmas break until next week.

I'm feeling a little anxious!

We are in the same position you are. The people we work at The Dainty Group are on Christmas break. We have numerous unanswered questions too.

No worries Tony. Thanks for your reply.

As it stands at the moment, I still have tix bought earlier. I'll just have to ride it out and see wahat happens.
