There's no theme at all.

Complete speculation based on false facts.

 

this Latitude/UK exclusive for cancelling a whole tour is ludicrous.

enough with the speculation...it's likely just a major rehab stint that needs  a good 6 months to sort himself out before boarding a flight in mid-June

A crippling substance addiction would go some way to explaining his latest album.

That's the real reason he spent so much time in that cabin. He's got a stockpile. The good stuff as well, pre ban recipe.

The thing I don't get is why the dates have been cancelled and not postponed. This has happened to me a couple of times recently and gigs have been postponed, with sometimes up to a year or more before new dates are confirmed. To outright cancel seems strange.

With the long runs he's doing at lots of venues, and how far in advance lots of tours are booked with venues, I'd assume the reality of postponing all the existing dates was just unworkable.

Really gutted about this and just hope that Justin and the band are ok. Takes something big to cancel so many dates

Nominated for a period they weren't even active in? David Bowie will do you one better; nominated as best male for a period he wasn't even alive in.

Do you mean Davie Bowie that's up for the album award?

Little Davie Bowie?

Fucking hell. What an absolute calamity

Still better than everyone who's retrospectively decided that his nickname was Starman.

I'm sure these things go from something like November-November, which is why some acts/songs from 2015 still make it into an awards ceremony in 2017. I think. I could be wrong.

Saw this poster today. Apparently the tour was cancelled so Justin could go med school- real name Justin Field according to the lab coat.

Ah, the disappointing Friday morning thread bump.

If so he's been to Liam Gallagher's artificial hair specialist.

Got my hopes up again just then. Damn. I've been watching this set to fill the void. Really quite something.

Yes, he's also had plastic surgery so he looks only vaguely similar to before.

 

Also, sorry getting people's hopes up (I'm doing it again)

So what's everybody thinking about this? I've kind of lost hope. I had tickets for the UK tour that was cancelled - absolutely gutted! Just been watching this vid for the millionth time, it really is one of the best live vids I've seen!

No chance for Glastonbury this year now. Theres nowhere for him to play besides any other factors. Hopefully the tour gets rescheduled for some time this year.

Yeh, that's what I'm thinking. Just hope the tour gets rescheduled. Bit worried about them vanishing without me having seen them in the flesh! 

[Zoo Music Girl]

Similarly gutted about this. Didn't really expect to see them on the poster, but then I didn't expect The National either... But nah can't see it now. I don't have high hopes for a tour this year in fact.

Does anybody know why the cancelled the UK tour?
