State Farm Arena had to know there was an opportunity for the Hawks to play on one of the two nights that Janet Jackson would be in town, but they decided to book Janet anyway.
Ms. Jackson is back and coming to a city near you! Today, the five-time GRAMMY®️ Award-winning Rock and Roll Hall of Fame®️ Inductee, Janet Jackson, has announced her highly anticipated return to the road after four years with her ninth concert tour, “Together Again.”
Produced by Live Nation, the 33-city tour will start spring 2023 visiting North American arenas and amphitheaters in Atlanta, New York, Toronto, and more; kicking-off in Hollywood, FL on April 14th at the Hard Rock Live, in two stops in Atlanta at the award-winning State Farm Arena on April 27th and 28th and wrapping up in Seattle, WA on June 21st at the Climate Pledge Arena. In addition, 3x-Grammy Award winning recording artist and Fast and Furious actor, Ludacris will join Jackson on tour across all dates as a special guest.
The “Together Again” Tour will offer everyone the long-awaited chance to reunite with Ms. Jackson in celebration of her 50th anniversary in entertainment and spotlight the milestones for two of Jackson’s most critically acclaimed albums – 25 years of “The Velvet Rope”, and 30 years of “janet”, featuring her biggest chart-topping hits, plus new music.
Thanks to Trae Young hitting a logo 3, the Hawks are scheduled to play the Celtics in Game 6 of their series on April 27th.

It appears to me that State Farm Arena felt there was no way this series would go six, so they were sent into a scramble, and here is what they came up with.
SHOW UPDATE: Due to tonight’s @ATLHawks Game 5 win 🎉, we will host Game 6 on Thursday, moving Thursday’s Janet Jackson concert to Friday. If you have tickets to the original show date, they will be honored for Friday’s date.

They don’t say what will happen to the people who had tickets for the Friday show.
Will there be a Saturday show?
Inquiring minds want to know.
