Nick Simmons | Photographer- Angry fans crowd around the door of the St Cloud Armory after not being allowed into the MGK show Thursday night.
Disgruntled fans of Machine Gun Kelly and other hip-hop artists waited outside of the St. Cloud Armory last week for a show that was not to begin. A riot broke out as the show was canceled by the National Guard at the last minute due to a lack of security to take control of the large crowd.
Attendees of the cancelled MGK-Rage Tour have been asked to hold on to their tickets to wait for a reschedule. The concert, which was originally planned for Feb. 16 at the St. Cloud Armory, will be rescheduled to a date which will be released soon. SCSU has also offered to refund discounted tickets sold to students.
Machine Gun Kelly said on his Twitter that he had no idea the show would be cancelled by promoters.
“They just cancelled the show??? I had absolutely NOTHING to do with that shit, I’ve never cancelled a show. I’m still at the hotel… wtf man,” MGK said via Twitter.
Events promoter Geoff Brown said the new concert date would be announced this week.
