Europe Tour Changes : Martina McBride

I just found out today that our trip to Europe is being postponed because of scheduling and routing issues over which I have no control. I won't bore you with the details, but suffice it to say I'm really disappointed and sorry. I was truly looking forward to playing the shows in Norway and the UK. We had a blast last year and it was an amazing experience playing for so many enthusiastic fans. I'm so sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. I know many of you were looking forward to these shows as well, and have already made travel plans, etc. I wish there was some way I could change it, but unfortunately there are a lot of details and people that go into planning a tour overseas, and this is just out of my control. Hopefully we can get this tour back on the schedule sooner than later.

Once again, I am sorry. Thanks for your understanding.

Sincerely,
Martina

Thank you for the explanation Martina! I'm really really disappointed (especially that I won't be able to go even if the London date gets rescheduled), but I guess some things you just don't have control over... Hopefully one of these days you will make it back here and I will be able to see you in concert again! Good luck with everything and take care!!

Wasn't because of the volcanic ash was it??? LMAO!!

Had to find some kind of funny. Trying not to be so upset and bummed out about it all.

Really, really hope this can be sorted, hope you can still make it here this year and in the summer - Winter's a drag to drive of 100 miles in...

Oh well.......life and things happen, they just happen to suck his year for me right now. Everything happens for a reason right? That's what I believe but I just can't see the reason why this had to happen...

LOVE YOU MARTINA!!! Just so you know. xxxx

So is the tour cancelled here in UK for def? Will O2 be refunding if there is no rescheduling?
That's an early birthday disappointment, great...this totally blows one thing I was looking forward to this year trashed.

Obviously it's not Martina's fault but this just sucks. Ticket bought and here at home on my pin board and parking ticket booked and day off from work. Now all to be cancelled , Hope something gets sorted by the powers that be and someone actually tells us ASAP as this is the first I've heard. Thanks for letting us know Martina, guess I'll be on the phone to the O2 tomorrow to see how they will screw me out of my money...or not.

Please let this be rescheduled! Pretty please! I'll ask the O2 peeps for advice and hold on to ticket until you all know more here in Martinaville...

So sad this had to happen, really disappointed but never in Martina - this isn't your fault Martina, not angry with you just the situation.

At this point, it sounds like they are trying to reschedule the dates, but there is nothing solid. It doesn't look like there's an ETA at this point on when we would hear more either.

What a disappointment for your fans with plans! I'm sure you have done everything possible to prevent this from happening. Just curious if Lee Ann Womack is going to have problems with her Norway show.
