Exteme Rising issued the following statement today:
We are writing to inform you that the Saturday, February 8th 2014 Extreme Rising show that was to take place at the Irish Centre at 6886 Forward Avenue in Pittsburgh, PA has been rescheduled to due to inclement weather and a State of Emergency for Pennsylvania just issued by Governor Tom Corbett, late Wednesday night.
