OT: What's the biggest event(s) you had planned that was cancelled?

Packer HOF Dinner and outing with Woodson. Was initially postponed to August - now will be next spring. :/
 
After two miscarriages in ten months that resulted in a bout of depression, my wife is training for her first marathon. It was going to be June 6th in Cooperstown, but now it's postponed to September.

The show must go on: we've figured out a 26.2 mile course around our neighborhood and a few neighbors are volunteering to cheer on and provide water stations. Even got our state rep, who's also a runner, to send her a video cheering her on.

She's an incredible person.

And we get to go to Cooperstown when there's a chance of baseball being played! It'll be my first time there since I was a kid! :)
 
We have a wedding at the end of July in Hilton Head and Cancun in October. Both are still a go as of right now.
 
business trip to San Fran, vacations in alaksa and hawaii, and a wedding in colorado
 
trip to see the kids out west, a friend's wedding, Phil's 80th, a trip to Sea Island, GA.......
 
Trip to South Carolina to see my parents in April, cancelled. College visit trip to Philly and Baltimore in April, cancelled.

Big one was a two family trip to Ireland over 11 days in June. Also taking a financial hit on that. Delta gave us credit not a refund and some AirBnB won’t give us our money back either. Very much pissed about that.

Planned college visits all summer, assume those will be cancelled too.

My friend's wife was scheduled to work the final four this year and they offered me a pass to attend both the semifinals and national championship and a hotel room. All I would've had to pay was $250 for a flight.

Ehat did you envision? Progressive, power, symphonic, gothic metal, hard rock- mostly European - Finland, Sweden, Germany, Norway, Italy with some Japanese and even Russian thrown in. Some Symphonic Black - don't like the grunting and growling.

Perry Como
 
Had a trip to see the Pens play the Jackets in CBus in March. If you’re a hockey fan looking for a fun road trip, I highly recommend CBus. R Bar is worth the trip alone.

Had a Summer full of concerts here in Pittsburgh planned. The Stones, Chesney, Crue, Weezer/Green Day, Vampire Weekend. Should’ve been an awesome concert season. Very bummed

I'm in Virginia. Used to live in CT. My parents have gone to Cape Cod ever since they were kids and they are 75 and 76. They go for 3 to 4 weeks every June. I was going to go for the first time in 15 years. Well, hopefully my parents there is September. They go for 3 weeks then also.
I'll be at my job hopefully.
 
Was going to follow Big Big Train and IZZ performing concerts in Quebec, New Jersey, and Northampton the past two weeks. Big Big Trains first time in North America.

Also missed going to Mobile, Alabama for my school's baseball alumni reunion game. Usually have John Lieber, Luis Gonzalez, Marlon Anderson, Dave Stapleton, etc in attendance. Always a good time lying about how good we were.

Big Big Train is pretty good - have heard some of their stuff on promo discs that come with my PROG magazine- was disappointed they weren't going to be on the Progressive music Cruise I supposed to take 1st week of April. I'll have to look IZZ - assuming progressive?
 
I was scheduled to travel to Italy, Portugal and the UK on a 3.5 week vacation. I was able to cancel hotels but not flight. Was only able to move dates when I'm ready for new dates

Yes, they are progressive and they should be bigger than they are. They are from the Harrison, NY area, so you can sometimes catch them playing in the area. At least once this virus thing goes away.

Uggh! Thats tough. Hate to hear that. I hope someday it happens for you both. Wish you both the best.
 
I had some really nice conferences cancelled (including two I was speaking at).

Also would’ve gone to a Sox game and some necbl games.

Plus summerslam. Which isn’t cancelled for fans yet, but is likely to be.

did you actually book through airbnb? the website is issuing direct refunds because of the pandemic you shouldnt have to deal with the bed and breakfast. i was able to get a booking fully refunded by only dealing with the website

Air BNB is nearly bankrupt itself now and is very stingy on the refunds. June isnt being refunded yet. Basically, they won’t refund unless I am prohibited from making the trip.

I am done. And I’ll do everything I can via floods of zero star reviews to cost any scumbag who keeps my money ten times as much in lost business.

This virus sucked. I'm a major summer vacation person, but its certainly a staycation year for us.

Had Broadway play tixs for wife's b'day along with a night out cancelled (got refunded). My daughter's college graduation ceremony this month was cancelled but it was for her Masters, but still.

Also we had a long awaited HS reunion in August that's now cancelled. The reunion was to be my highlight of the year.

The US Open Pickleball Championships in Naples FL in late April...yes, there is such a thing. Would have been my first Open and even though I'm guaranteed a spot in next year's tournament I'll be a year older and a year slower. Airbnb would not refund me because host would not agree to it. Still debating whether I should write a nasty review of them and him. Hotwire gave me a full refund for rental car. I like them.
