Post Malone, the 30-year-old sensation, just made a big announcement that has fans buzzing! On May 1st, he took to Instagram to reveal that the start of his highly anticipated Big Ass Stadium Tour Part 2 is being pushed back by about three weeks. And why, you ask? Well, it’s all about his upcoming album, The Eternal Buzz, which he wants to wrap up properly before hitting the road. Fans, mark your calendars: the tour was originally set to kick off on May 13 in El Paso, Texas, but it’s now slated to begin on June 9 in Charlotte, North Carolina.
This shift has sadly led to the cancellation of six shows that were planned in various states, including Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, and Florida. Malone expressed his apologies to fans eager to see him perform, emphasizing his disappointment over the situation. He’s not just leaving fans hanging, though—he’s bringing Jelly Roll along for the ride, which should add some extra excitement to the tour!
What to Expect from The Eternal Buzz
Now, let’s talk about the music! The Eternal Buzz is shaping up to be quite the masterpiece—a 40-track double album, no less! Post Malone has assured fans that he’s sticking to his roots and won’t forget the sound that made him a household name. He’s clearly passionate about his craft, which is wonderful to see. As he mentioned, the timing just wasn’t aligning with his artistic goals, and that’s why he made the tough decision to delay the tour.
Before the tour kicks off, Malone will be hitting three festivals: Boots in the Park in Albuquerque on May 16, Gulf Coast Jam in Panama City Beach, Florida, on May 31, and the Carolina Country Music Festival in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, on June 7. So, even though fans will have to wait a bit longer for the stadium shows, they can still catch him live at these events!
Tour Details and Changes
Let’s not forget about the details of the tour itself! The North American leg of the Big Ass Stadium Tour now consists of 13 dates, wrapping up on July 28 in Salt Lake City. After that, the tour is set to head to Asia, where Don Toliver will take Jelly Roll’s place. It’s going to be a wild ride, and you won’t want to miss it!
For those in the affected areas—like Tampa, Florida, and Birmingham, Alabama—it’s a bit of a bummer, but if you’re a true Post Malone fan, you know the wait will be worth it.
