Overview
- Grizzly Touring is suing Rod Wave for roughly $27 million over the curtailed Last Lap Tour, citing unearned advances and claiming only 26 of 35 shows were completed.
- Rod Wave has publicly blamed poor routing and logistics for cancellations and reschedules, and his countersuit seeks to void the promoter agreement so he can self-promote future dates.
- On The Joe Budden Podcast, he criticized primary sellers and resellers, saying intended $55–$85 tickets can end up near $300 beyond his control.
- He launched Mainstay Touring in September to take more control of routing, promotion, and ticketing after disputes over how his recent tour was handled.
- He described the legal clash as a necessary fight over industry practices and said companies prioritizing profits do not look out for his fans.
