The Lead

Last week’s unrelenting rain saturated pastures across Westmoreland County, forcing the eleventh-hour cancellation of country star Luke Bryan’s Farm Tour opening concert at 1846 Farms in neighboring Unity. But ticketholders should keep their passes handy. Host Aleisha Stas confirmed that active conversations are underway with Bryan’s management to reschedule the performance before winter arrives. The 12,000-square-foot timber-frame venue, set on farmland worked by the family since the late 1700s, had spent months preparing for the multi-state agricultural tour kickoff. The primary logistical hurdle now involves aligning open dates in Bryan’s tour routing with sufficiently dry ground to safely park thousands of vehicles and production trailers. Promoters expect an official decision on the makeup date within the coming weeks.

Spotlight & Story

• Lycippus
  • Before taking the name Lycippus, the crossroads village just up Route 981 was called Mount Union. When postal clerks rejected it because another Pennsylvania town claimed it first, residents chose the ancient Greek sculptor of Alexander the Great.
