Stick Figure Say They’ll Refund Fans Who Can’t Make Sacred Stone Tour


Cali roots reggae outfit Stick Figure will refund fans who buy tickets but then can't make their Sacred Stone Tour later this summer.

The band — led by singer and songwriter Scott Woodruff — is experimenting with the refund concept for their upcoming Sacred Sands tour, which is on sale now. The concert business has traditionally not issued refunds to fans, stamping tickets with warnings like “Rain or Shine” and “All Sales Final.” For early rock promoter pioneers, refunds represented an unacceptable level of uncertainty — a promoter would go bankrupt if spent millions to book an artist, only to have the fans want their money back at the last minute. We believe in looking out for our fans and understand that life can be unpredictable,” he wrote, noting the refund offer will apply “to anyone that bought tickets but can’t go to the show for any reason.”
