Daltrey cancels Sept. 1 show

Roger Daltrey announced Wednesday that due to continued COVID-19 restrictions, his Sept. 1 show at Northern Quest Resort & Casino has been canceled.

Daltrey said in a news release: “Due to the uncertainty of the current travel situation and the challenges for a U.K. act to be able to perform in the USA, I have reluctantly decided to cancel the shows. I hope to rebook them in the near future.”

Refunds will be credited to a ticket buyer’s account. For those who paid cash, refunds will be available at the Northern Quest box office. Questions? Email the box office at boxoffice@northernquest.com.

Allman Betts Band adds acts

The Allman Betts Band, who headlines Martin Woldson Theater at the Fox on Sept. 11, has added two opening acts to the show: Marc Ford (marcfordmusic.com/band) and the River Kittens (m.facebook.com/riverkittens).

River Kittens will play as an acoustic duo for 20 minutes to open the evening, followed by a short break, and then Marc Ford will perform a 40-minute set. ABB will close out the night with a 90- to 120-minute set downtown.

Tickets are available at foxtheaterspokane.org.
