Avril Lavigne's San Diego and Phoenix shows have officially been cancelled. Refunds for the two show will be available at the point of purchase. Again, we apologize for any inconvenience caused. For an official statement by Avril Lavigne regarding the cancelled shows, please click here.
I am at home right now taking it easy. I have been sick this whole tour, and now I have lost my voice. I have never canceled a show in my whole career and just had to for the first time ever. This sux!
I am so sorry! I have been on the road for 60 days straight. I have had the flu 3 times and I never get sick, it just keeps going around. I think I am just run down. I just played 4 shows in a row in Texas (which is a lot for the vocals) and woke up in Vegas Tuesday with no voice. I thought I was gonna have to cancel that show, but I made it through.....barely! I still went on stage in Vegas and gave it my all, but unfortunately its interfering with my throat now. I had to eliminate songs.
I woke up yesterday and knew I wouldn't be able to sing last night. My voice is so shot. We drove home yesterday and I went to my throat doctor. He stuck a camera down my throat....ewwww, I gagged!!! It was kinda funny though.....he said I have "Acute Laryngitis".
So, um, yeah, that sux. I was supposed to play a show in San Diego yesterday and was supposed to perform on Jay Leno tomorrow and go live with Ryan Seacrest in the today, but I had to cancel that too. I'm at home resting my voice for 2 days and hope to be back out soon. Thank you for understanding. And once again, I sincerely apologize.
Avril Lavigne's show for tonight, Wednesday, April 30th at Cox Arena in San Diego has been postponed due to illness. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused for those attending. More details in regards to a rescheduled date and refund will be posted on Avril's website as soon as plans are confirmed.
