"Sexy Soul Tour" Cancelled

This tour featured Mint Condition, Eric Benet and Ledisi. They're citing some "personal reasons". Wonder what happened? hmmm

SAD! Its bad enough that these tours dont happen very often but to have them cancelled is worse, im hoping this has nothing to do with Attendance, because it really is starting to make me sick the lack of support in these genres by the audience it targets! Case in point, back in the later 1990's Paul Simons "Capeman" opened and played about a month, had to do with the struggles and really just a great story about a Positive latin family, problem, 95% of the shows, the people in the audience werent latin.

Its really troubling because there are folks that want to see this and not THAT. But the lack of push from radio (or should i say) a DJ having the balls to go against the grain, the same can be said of that BET crap station, stop playing stereotypical bullshit reality shows (leave that to mtv and vh1) and support!! Dont just talk it WALK IT!!

Yeah just something off topic but related if that makes sense. When i was in music retail, i would have customers come in ALL THE TIME looking for rb/soul dvds, but the classic stuff, spinners,four tops etc..you get the drift and they always look around and see things like usher and beyonce and go, this shit just happend a month ago, how can that be a "memory" needed to be released?? I was always so frustrated that there really wasnt much of an alternative.

They never wanna look for the alternative, it's either very old or not at all. I'm old school too but you gotta diversify sometimes. lol

There was some rumor about her busting slobs with Trey Songz or somebody at the Soul Train awards.

I don't think Kerry is in the band and him and Toni are still together. They were at the Soul Train awards last week.

I'm really disappointed.Tix were available thru the presale on Thurs but when I went to buy them on Fri it said it was cancelled. pout Even tho I've seen Ledisi twice and MC once in the last year, i was still looking forward to this. confused

Maybe they haven't updated everything yet. Did you call TM? I'd take MC's comment about tonight's show being the last one seriously.

Shame it got cancelled.

For some reason I always imagined the song Run Away was about Keri and Toni.
