TULSA, OK -- A big concert this weekend at Tulsa's BOK Center has changed, disappointing many fans. 

Widespread Panic was scheduled for a show at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, featuring Robert Randolph and the Family Band as the opening act.

A number of patrons who bought tickets for the concert have learned that the opening act will not be performing.

Robert Randolph and the Family Band was pulled from the BOK Center web site, but there has not been any official announcement from the BOK Center.  When The News On 6 talked with the BOK Center's marketing manager, Paige Laughlin, she said "the band just pulled out from the tour, I was just as excited as everyone else to see Robert Randolph and the Family Band." 

The BOK Center is offering no refunds or discounts for the tickets because Robert Randolph and the Family Band was just the opening act.   

Robert Randolph and the Family Band has been to Tulsa before and played at Cain's Ballroom. Widespread Panic has played at the Brady Theatre numerous times. 

In fact, both bands' shows at those venues usually sell out.
