New York based jamband, moe., had planned a pair of Drive-In shows this weekend at Vernon Downs Casino Hotel in Vernon, NY but health and safety concerns due to COVID-19 caused the venue to pull the plug on the two night event.
“Despite putting a comprehensive health and safety plan in place for the events, Vernon Downs management made the preemptive decision to not allow the concerts to be held on-site due to the continuing health and safety concerns surrounding the global COVID-19 pandemic.”

A statement from the band on Facebook reads:
Today Vernon Downs has decided to no longer host our Miracle Mile event. Due to the short notice we have been forced to cancel our shows on Friday and Saturday. Refunds will be automatically issued by Ticketmaster to all original ticket purchasers.
We are heartbroken and cannot convey how saddened we are for the inconveniences this has caused our fans. We wish for nothing more than to play live for you.While can no longer play for you in a live concert setting, we will still perform for you live via webcast. We have been rehearsing in an historic church-turned-recording studio and will broadcast two full moe. shows from this setting, starting at 7pm on Friday and Saturday evenings.
We hope you can join us virtually. For tickets and more information, please visit https://tourgigs.com/shows
