A power outage Saturday silenced the halls of the Toyota Pavillion in Concord that was headlining Styx and Foreigner.
The arena was filled with close to 9,500 classic rock fans excited to see the show that was set to start at 6:45 p.m. But power outage that started at 6:39 p.m. halted the show, according to the Mercury News, which originally reported the story.
“Due to a power outage, we unfortunately have to postpone tonight’s Styx and Foreigner show.,” said the Totota Pavillion in an Instagram story. “Hold on to your tickets. Once a new date has been rescheduled your tickets will still be valid.”
The show was set to open with John Waite, but fans were left waiting as the venue decided to pause the show before anyone went on stage. According to the Mercury News, the show was cancelled by 8 p.m. and fans were left wondering what happened.
The center has encouraged concertgoers to monitor its social media pages for updates.
