“The irony of the filing date of this lawsuit is not lost on me. I went to college,” plaintiffs attorney Matt Crumpton said in a statement. Not only was the irony not lost on the prosecuting attorney, his firm released a press release about it.

“We set a date and signed a contract. I even sent the deposit to AfroMan himself, right away. They must have just forgotten about our show,” concert promoter Nathan Pettry said in a statement.

Pettry and Patio owner Wallace Entertainment are seeking a yet-to-be-determined amount to compensate for the deposit, promotion expenses, lost profits and cost of ticket refunds.
