The Weeknd Reschedules Postponed “After Hours” Tour Dates

by

The Weeknd is heading back to The Land Down Under in just a couple of months, according to AllHipHop. Abel Tesfaye went on quite the historic tour last year celebrating his last two albums After Hours (2020) and Dawn FM (2022). The After Hours Til Dawn Tour became a global event, however a couple of stops were canceled due to “schedule and logistical constraints”. From November through December of 2023, The Weeknd was going to be closing things out in Australia and New Zealand. Because of this pretty vague reason for shutting the fans out, the Canadian superstar felt it wasn’t right to leave them hanging.

So, earlier today, The Weeknd shared this exciting update via Instagram. “AUSTRALIA, I didn’t forget about you 🖤 See you in October. Ticket presale Aug 22. 🇦🇺 LINK IN BIO”. Yes, he is returning for a short time, four days to be exact starting October 5 in Melbourne, Australia at Marvel Stadium. Additionally, he will be there on the 6. Then, after about two weeks, the “After Hours” hitmaker will then hop on a flight to Sydney for shows on the 22 and 23 at Accor Stadium.

Sadly, residents of Brisbane and Auckland, New Zealand are going to be missing out this time around. Originally, the After Hours Til Dawn Tour stops were two nights in Brisbane and two in Auckland. While fans of those respective areas were upset, the fact that The Weeknd is doing this to begin with shows how much he cares about his supporters. He said it himself in a statement, “I want to make sure you all know I hadn’t forgotten about you. When I return now, it will be the right time, and I promise it will be such a special experience. I can’t wait to see you all!”.

What are your thoughts on The Weekend heading back to Australia after previously canceling After Hours Til Dawn dates? Are you surprised he dropped the original Brisbane and Auckland stops? How do you feel about him returning after all this time later? When do you foresee him dropping new music? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Usher Unveils Why He Had To Postpone His Early Tour Stops

USHER had fans in an uproar yesterday over his surprise postponement of the inaugural show for his Past Present Future tour. He did so just hours before he was supposed to hit the stage in Atlanta, Georgia. The R&B superstar sent a few painful paragraphs to explain the reason for this. “For my 30-plus year career, 100% of my blood, sweat and tears has gone into putting on the best performance and creating a memorable experience for my fans. I have every intention of doing that for this tour as well. Which is why I have to postpone tonight’s show and reschedule it for a later date to give my body a second to rest and heal”.

People were suspecting that he was referring to all of his previous gigs such as the Super Bowl, his Las Vegas, Nevada residency, and etc. This had some fans understanding where he was coming from, especially since they recognize how much work he puts into his shows. Still, though, others felt blindsided. But it seems we now have specifics. According to a report from Bossip, USHER released yet another statement in which he revealed that he suffered a neck injury of sorts. “Earlier this week, I suffered an injury to my neck while rehearsing to provide my fans with the greatest USHER show of all time”, he began.

USHER Moves Tour Dates Around Following Neck Injury Announcement

“My hope was that with physical therapy and medical treatment, I would be able to overcome the injury and be ready for opening night. Unfortunately, the injury has not healed yet, and my doctors have instructed me not to perform any shows this week”. Thankfully, though, if he stays the course on the proper recovery track, he can hit the stage in Washington, D.C., Tuesday, August 20. Furthermore, the first three shows in Atlanta that were going to kick off the tour are rescheduled. The August 14 show will now be December 9. August 16 is being pushed back to December 10. Then, the performance on the 17 is going to take place on December 12.

What are your thoughts on USHER revealing that a neck injury was the reason for postponing the early Atlanta tour dates? Do you think the fans that were bashing him should apologize? How do you feel about the timing for the rescheduled shows? Are you planning on going to one of the performances? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.
