    Hi Steve Marinucci,

    The date of the event is actually the 29th of Jan and not the 9th. :)

    I was also wondering where you sourced your information from which states that the Red Hot Chili Peppers will be playing?

    This is of importance to me as I'm part of a Red Hot Chili Peppers Fanstie (www.stadium-arcadium.com) and this information would be VERY significant news if it's true.

    Thanks for your time.
