The Maceo Parker show on Sunday, March 15, has been canceled due to “serious default in rental payment and other obligations” by the venue’s management. The only other show to be canceled was Friday’s performance by Busta Rhymes. On March 20, shows will continue as originally planned, although under new management and likely a new name. Toad Place’s stay in Richmond may be done.

Sorry to all of those who entered in the Maceo Parker ticket giveaway contest here on RVAjazz last week.

Thanks goes out to Richmond’s amazingly efficient online communities, which broke the story as soon as it happened on Monday and got details to those concerned with losing another Richmond venue. Twitter was bustling with conversation as soon as it happened. Check these stories out below and continue to support these great resources.
