Have tickets to this along with some other friends who were flying in from out of town. All cancelled, this is just NOT worth the risk right now, and no amount of extra hand sanitizer is going to help with 7k people packed in a room together??
I'm so sad and frustrated. One of my all time fave bands and I've been dying to see them for like 10+ years. Really sucks I feel like I have to make this awful, unethical choice when they can just postpone for everyone's safety.

This song title comes to mind.
So you’re saying it’s definitely still on
You only live once would be apt too. Would love to see them live but I just don’t like the WAMU center.
Century Link’s official page says the show is still on, as of now. That could change though.
from the website
*At this time, the concert will go on as planned. We will update if that changes.
WAMU Theater has implemented heightened sanitation procedures and processes, including enhanced cleaning treatments to disinfect all areas of the venue before and after every event, additional hand sanitizing stations, and continued staff training and education. Hand sanitizer bottles and face masks will be allowed into the event.
Ticketmaster customer service phone rings to busy signal and their chat directs you to send an email. Who’s still planning to go?
Pretty sure it will. They sent out an email this morning talking about extra sanitary procedures and saying face masks and hand sanitizer bottles will be allowed in the venue. That seems like an odd thing to do if they were canceling the show.

Don’t be scared just be cautious
