The funk all-stars of Lettuce and The Motet have recently been touring together, with The Motet joining Lettuce for a handful of dates across the U.S. in the last month and a half. These joint dates will come to close over the next few days, with both bands previously scheduled to perform in New York over the next three nights—tonight at The Paramount and two nights at The Capitol Theatre on Friday and Saturday. Unfortunately, for tonight’s show at The Paramount in Huntington, Long Island, The Motet has had to cancel last minute due to travel-related issues caused by the snowstorm sweeping up the East Coast—meaning that tonight’s show will feature an extended Lettuce show sans an opener.
As issued in a press release from The Paramount regarding these last-minute lineup changes:
The Paramount announces that tonight’s show with Lettuce will still go on. Unfortunately, due to travel related issues as a result of yesterday’s nor’easter, The Motet will not be performing. Funk band Lettuce is in the building now and will perform live in concert tonight at 9 pm. Doors open at 8 pm. For customers who are unable to attend the show tonight due to travel issues and/or lineup changes, refunds on tickets for tonight’s show are now available at the ticketholders’ point of purchase – Ticketmaster or The Paramount Box Office. For any questions or concerns, you can call the venue at (631) 673-7300 or visit paramountny.com.
On Friday and Saturday night, both Lettuce and The Motet will hit The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York, for a highly anticipated two-night run. As previously reported, Relix will be webcasting the entirety of Friday’s show for free, so fans who want to get a funk fix but can’t make it to the venue should tune in at 8 p.m. (EST). Safe travels to The Motet, and see you at The Paramount tonight!
