Last night (11th), President Donald Trump made a major announcement on placing a 30-day ban on travel from 26 European countries as an emergency effort to contain the spread of the virus. Unfortunately, this can mean many more cancellations as we’ve most recently heard about Machine Head and Russian Circles. While Livenation’s stock continues to crumble and Washington State implementing a ban on events with more than 250 people, life as we know it is changing whether we believe it or not. There’s most likely more to come as there are reports pleading to cancel everything in order to contain the virus. With that being said, these are the latest cancellations:
