Wonder what the skinny is here. Poor sales, musicians not getting an advance?
Yacht Rock. Is that even a thing?
Save your money for the inevitable Dead & Co playing in the sand this January.
Or, get on with life.

I would imagine the thing is bombing and the promoter is offering buyouts before they cancel the event.
And "yacht rock" is just another way we all look to categorize/dumb down everything into neat, simplistic little packages, usually with disparaging intent.

We went to see Yachtly Crew
We went to see Yachtly Crew not too long ago at our local theater venue. The show was pretty entertaining but the real show was the rookie fans in captains hats and topsiders, lol. I've never seen so many super drunk, rookie concert goers in my life. People falling down drunk in the isles. The line for a drink was impossible from the get go, and only got longer as the night progressed. Talk about chompers.... it was insane. I'd go again, but next time im sneaking in my drink and sitting in the back, ( but i usually do that anyways).
