Yes and no. He has stated that this was within the refundable deposit period. If a gig that is still MONTHS away cancels, one should REASONABLY expect to be able to fill the date and the client should be entitled to a refund. Three days (weeks, months - your call) to go? Sorry, no refund. That's what the deposit was for. That's MY opinion anyway...
