The Lily Tomlin performance originally scheduled for April 5, 2008 has been rescheduled for February 7, 2009.

Some thoughts:

  1. Lily Tomlin has an act for which people will pay money to see? Wow, I can't imagine what kind of coin people would drop to see Artie Johnson. 
  2. Is canceling a show and scheduling another show ten months later really considered to be "rescheduling"? Isn't that more like realizing you don't want to come to Pittsburgh and to avoid having to give people their money back, you schedule a show so far in advance that you hope everyone will either forget about it or die prior to the show so you don't have to go through with it?
  3. Where do you store tickets for an event that you're going to attend ten months from now and remember where you put them when the time comes?
  4. 37% of those who purchased Lily Tomlin tickets actually thought they were buying tickets for a Ruth Buzzi show.
  5. I considered going to see Lily Tomlin but wanted to see someone more current, like Jay Johnson.
  6. 6% of those who purchased Lily Tomlin tickets actually thought they were buying tickets for an evening with Steelers coach Mike Tomlin.
