i'm seeing so much outrage over this, it's funny how his fans don't see how money hungry he is

He SHOULD have just done this arena tour, and THEN NEXT YEAR, do a shorter stadium run.

As far as i know, the arena shows were selling fine, so this isn't a move to not wanna play empty arenas.

You think its covid related? Like, indoor arenas putting restrictions on ticket goers?

no, i think it's just greed. the thing about abel is that he's extremely ambitious. he wants to be able to pull off a stadium tour which is notoriously hard to do, bieber attempted one and had to cancel it for low sales. the only other male pop artists that can do it at the moment are ed sheeran and bts.

the thing is that take my breath underperformed and he postponed his new album so i thought that he'd do the tour and then the album but now he's going to combine them which sucks for the people who really wanted to hear all after hours tracks live. and then there are some fans who still believe he'll sing kissland songs lmao, they need to give that up

I was wondering about his single. I feel like it came and went. IMO there wasn't enough time because it feels like his current era is still going.

This is such a dick move and I hope it backfires massively in his ass. Who cancels an entire tour and announces a new stadium tour where tickets will cost exponentially more in the same breath?!

I hope his fans see him for the greedy piece of shit he is.

yea im wondering if these stadiums are gonna be half empty (or not necessarily empty, but the stage may take up a third of the space like a lot of tours can do.)

you want more money?

I just got the ticketmaster email that I will be refunded. Thanks for that. But changing your venue in The Netherlands from Ziggo Dome to *probably* Amsterdam Arena? Yeah... no thanks hun. I'll sit this one out. Good luck, tho!

is it a further distance, or bigger place?

Bigger and right next to each other, so that's no issue 😂 point is, is that the sound in the Amsterdam Arena is SO terrible. I have no other words for it. The venue just ruins the concert itself.

This is bullshit for everyone that's had tickets for nearly two years at this point.

He couldn't help the pandemic, but Harry Styles is doing arenas at the moment and the tour seems to be going on without any issues.

Changing to outdoor venues does make sense, but it's still a crap move.

How much demand does he think he has though? Boy this ain’t no Reputation Stadium Tour.
