Post Malone pushes back tour with Jelly Roll amid low | Music News
Post Malone has postponed his upcoming ‘Big A– Stadium Tour 2’ with Jelly Roll amid stories of struggling ticket gross sales.
On Friday, May 1, the 30-year-old performer posted to his Instagram Story about canceling a number of dates and pushing the tour’s start back by three weeks, explaining, “We ain’t ready for tour just yet.” The singer said he “didn’t have time” to report new music before hitting the highway with Jelly Roll, and that he needed to end the double album he was working on.
“Looking at the upcoming schedule after Stagecoach,” he wrote, “I came to the realization that what we’re trying to do, and what’s possible, isn’t really lining up.”
The rapper-turned-country star went on, “The truth is, I promised y’all beautiful people new music, and I don’t have the time to finish it before tour starts. We ain’t ready for tour just yet, so I’m making the decision to push the tour back about 3 weeks to get this music done.”
Post Malone, who not too long ago headlined the Stagecoach Music Festival, slashed nearly a third of the tour’s North American dates, which was supposed to kick off on May 13 at El Paso’s Sun Bowl Stadium. Dates in Waco, Baton Rouge, Birmingham, Tampa, and Oxford had been canceled.
The ‘Big A– Stadium Tour 2’ will now start with the June 9 show in Charlotte, North Carolina.
While the Pour Me a Drink singer says he wants more time to wrap up his 40-track double album titled The Eternal Buzz, rumors have been swirling about struggling ticket gross sales after Jelly Roll confronted backlash after the Grammys for his suspected MAGA affiliation.
“I’m so sorry to the folks who were planning on coming to the few canceled shows. I was looking forward to going nuts with y’all. That THAT being said, we been making some bada– s–t for this double album… and I can’t wait to perform for y’all again.”
Before the tour was set to kick off, stories circulated of low ticket gross sales, with some dates seeing up to 75% of tickets still accessible.
The news of Post Malone and Jelly Roll’s tour being postponed comes after Zayn Malik canceled the US leg of his area tour earlier the same day. A few weeks earlier, Meghan Trainor scrapped her complete tour to spend more time with her younger children.
