Danzig cancels Houston gig due to heatwave

Danzig have canceled their outdoor gig in Houston, Texas this weekend “due to the ongoing heatwave”.

The band was scheduled to perform on September 3 on the White Oak lawn, with support from Behemoth, Twin Temple and Midnight.

Danzig has shared the following statement earlier:

Due to the ongoing heatwave, and out of concern for our crew and fans, we are forced to cancel our outdoor show in Houston this Sunday Sept. 3. We hope to make it back as soon as possible. Refunds will be issued at point of purchase.

Houston has reached its all-time record for hottest temperature on August 24, when 109 degrees Farenheit was the recorded temperature at Bush Intercontinental Airport. This mark tied that established on September 4, 2000, and matched on August 27, 2011. The 109 record was tied again just three days later, on August 27, 2023. This data is available here.
