Local venue apologizes for starting show on time

A popular Knoxville music venue today vowed to make it up to the fans who were disappointed last night by a show that started on time. Fans arrived two hours late expecting to rock out to the tunes of New Mexico indie band Meat Shower. Instead they found that the concert had just ended. "We had to start the concert on time," Meat Shower's lead singer tweeted on Monday. "We're so very sorry to the fans. We're devastated. You mean everything to us. We'll try to put together something special just for Knoxville." The venue also apologized, saying that it would never start a show on time again. Many fans were unsympathetic. "Who starts a concert in Knoxville on time?" asked one disappointed observer. It is unclear whether fans that arrived late to attend the show were given refunds.
