Fans who bought tickets for Alanis Morissette’s Australian tour more than two and a half years ago are getting excited about the singer’s latest move.
Alanis Morissette has taken the needle out of his upcoming tour of the Australian arena, leaving fans who had already endured more than two years of rescheduled dates.
The singer’s tour, which celebrates 25 years since her iconic innovative album Jagged Little Pill, was originally made in April 2020.
The Covid pandemic wiped it out and the tour was rescheduled for November 2020, and then again in November 2021.
Finally, the dates were postponed one more year until November 2022, only to be canceled yesterday, more than two and a half years after the tickets could initially go on sale, due to “unprecedented logistical challenges of world tours in 2022 “. ”
Morrisette herself said in a statement on social media to fans that she was “depressed” to cancel the tour and insisted that while tickets would be refunded, instead “it had been proposed to me which I will postpone for another time “.
“I love you so much and can’t wait to get there,” he wrote.
Fans who had paid for their tickets in December 2019 expressed anger and disappointment under the post, with many frustrated that the tour had been canceled altogether after suffering so many pandemic delays.
“We’ve waited so long, even after it was canceled for the first time. We were happy to wait because the sheep love you, but that’s a kick in the teeth,” one fan wrote.
“Waiting to hear from Ticketek about a refund, I doubt he’ll even have the same credit card to be reimbursed all those years later,” another wrote.
“Imagine waiting for a concert for more than two years and getting nothing,” said another.
“He chained people for almost 2 and a half years … and then he canceled the show. Absolutely fucked up,” said another angry fan.
Others were even angrier, with a fan labeling the cancellation as “Pathetic. Blaming the logistics and programming is a cop off. You’ve had more than 2 years to make it possible. Diadi, the Foo Fighters go come and go flying for a unique show and you can’t drag your unfortunate ass here for a tour that was supposed to be done 2 years ago.
Morissette’s local tour company, Live Nation Australia, said the singer will strive to return to Australia as soon as possible. In a statement, they said that all parties “believe that it is better to return the ticket holders now and have agreed to reschedule these dates as soon as possible.”
“It’s a shame it’s canceled now at a time when travel restrictions have been reduced when the reason for previous cancellations was travel restrictions. It’s not ironic, don’t you think?” joked another ticket holder.
Morissette last visited Australia for an acoustic tour in January 2018. Her Jagged Little Pill tour is one of many high-profile tours that have fallen victim to the persistent effects of the pandemic, with visits to the arena. scheduled for people like Rod Stewart, Snoop Dogg, Faith No More, James Blunt and Simple Minds have been canceled in recent months.
