VANCOUVER --
It was supposed to be a surprise birthday present but it turned into a disappointment.
Last January, Margaret Nelson of North Saanich bought a $517 entertainment package at the River Rock Casino and Resort to see Boz Scaggs in concert, which included an overnight stay in the resort.
“We love Boz Scaggs,” Nelson said.
Despite having most of Scaggs albums, she and her husband Peter had never seen Scaggs perform live.
“So I thought, you know what? He’s close by, let’s go see him,” she added.
COVID-19 hit and the May concert was initially postponed to May 2021. Eventually, the entire Canadian tour was cancelled.
