2. A group I perform with is planning to play there in a few months

This is not a high level thing. There is a cottage industry of organizing trips for groups of any sort to perform inside Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center or other famous buildings. It is basically a specialized travel agency business that uses dates when those centers would normally be empty.

When this group started talking about this trip, I put my name on the "likely" list. But once Trump fired the professional management and installed his lackeys, I moved to the "no way" list. And after his name desecrated the place, I am now on the "Hell no, WTF are you people thinking?" list.

I guess this group is still planning to appear, but the last I heard, they were recruiting home school kids and their parents to fill the many vacancies.

I bet this story is repeated over and over in the next 12 months.
