Fans were also allowed to request refunds at the point of purchase if unable to attend, while new tickets were also made available. Texas Tech President Lawrence Schovanec sent an email to students and their families Wednesday night confirming that a 'manhole' tunnel explosion caused a fire to spread on the campus, 'leading to outages' in different areas of the school. 'Electricity and gas were shut down across both the Texas Tech and Health Sciences Center campuses in Lubbock to keep the fire from spreading further,' read the Wednesday statement. 'The fire was successfully extinguished Wednesday evening.' Brooks & Dunn is scheduled to perform at Austin's Moody Center on Friday and Corpus Christi's American Bank Center on Saturday before returning to Lubbock next week. The group is set to continue their Neon Moon Tour's first leg through late April. The tour is named after their 1992 hit of the same name.
