Some Lamb Of God<\/a><\/strong> fans in South Carolina reportedly got something very different than what they bargained for over the weekend, thanks to a ticket listing error on StubHub.<\/p>\n A December 20 event at Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium in Spartanburg, SC was mistakenly billed on the ticket resale site as a concert by the Richmond, Virginia groove metal band Lamb Of God<\/strong>. In reality, the performance had nothing to do with metal \u2014 or Lamb Of God<\/strong> at all. Mostly.<\/p>\n Instead of blast beats and mosh pits, attendees were met with Andrew Peterson<\/strong>‘s Behold The Lamb Of God, a Christian Christmas concert based on Peterson’s 2004 conceptual album, Behold The Lamb Of God: The True Tall Tale Of The Coming Of Christ<\/em>. The album and accompanying tour center on the Advent and birth of Jesus Christ, making it about as far removed from Lamb Of God<\/strong>‘s music as possible.<\/p>\n A screenshot of the StubHub listing circulating online shows how the mistake could easily have misled buyers unfamiliar with Andrew Peterson<\/strong>‘s long-running holiday project. Adding to the embarrassment, December 20 marked the final stop of Peterson’s 13-date U.S. tour, meaning the event was clearly identifiable as part of a Christian concert series\u2026 if properly labeled.<\/p>\n Following the backlash, StubHub issued an apology<\/a> and confirmed that refunds would be available to affected customers under its FanProtect Guarantee: “We acknowledge the listing for the December 20 event at Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium was misleading and apologize for the confusion this caused.<\/p>\n “Ahead of the show we updated the event page and reached out to customers to clarify the event details. Anyone who purchased tickets under the impression this was a different performance is encouraged to contact us \u2014 we’ll honor a full refund.”<\/p>\n Lamb Of God<\/strong> last performed live in November, making the supposed December 20 “show” an immediate red flag for longtime fans. Frontman Randy Blythe<\/strong> addressed the mix-up with humor on his Instagram story, writing: “We usually play @groundzerovenue NOT Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium. This why StubHub sucks. Merry Christmas, Spartanburg.”<\/p>\n Ironically, this isn’t the first time Lamb Of God<\/strong> have been mistakenly linked to religious events. Back in 2014, the band’s logo was used without permission on promotional materials for an Easter-themed event held annually in Salem, VA, prompting a similar round of confusion.<\/p>\n However! Lamb of God<\/strong> is<\/em> set to return to the road this March for what promises to be the heaviest tour of 2026, with the North American trek featuring support from Kublai Khan TX<\/strong>, Fit For An Autopsy<\/strong>, and Sanguisugabogg<\/strong>.
