-------------------------------------------------
At this point it looks like the show will go on, but I'm willing to wager that it's probably too early to tell. Market will settle as YES if the February 27, 2010 show happens. Will settle as NO if the February 27, 2010 concert is cancelled/postponed for any reason (even if it's not medically related).
Settlement details:As reported by a major mainstream news source.
