Sugarland Respond to Concert Cancellation Backlash

I CANT BELIEVE THAT COUNTRY FANS ARE ANGRY OF A FEW CANCELLED SHOWS I RATHER HAVE A FEW CANCEL SHOWS THEN NOT SEEING SUGARLAND PERFORM AND HAVING THE GROUPD MAKE MORE HITS.

I DIDNT REALIZE THAT FANS OF COUNTRY MUSIC WOULD BE THAT WAY. AND I WANT TO SAY THAT YOU ARE DISRESPCTING SUGARLAND.

I can not believe how small and bitter people are. I do agree that if you people complaining called in sick at work, you could care less what your boss thought or if you put other people out because they will have to do your job now but you complain about one concert you will miss because the artist is haveing a true bono-fide health issue and they can not do a concert due to that REAL issue. I am sure alot of people who do call in sick are NOT sick, just wanted the day off of the "I got a headache" excuse. Let Jennifer be, she has a legitimate excuse. She will be back as long as she heals and takes care of her self. She does not need the back lash from you ignorant people. SHe WORKS for her fans and appreciates each one of them. SHe gives her 110% when she is on stage. Give her a break!!!!!!!!

It's not surprising she has problems with her vocal cords; I have always noticed she sings hard with her throat, doesn't utilize her diaphragm to sing properly. Definitely needs a specialized singing coach to teach her not to thrash her vocal cords like that.

I had tickets to a Big E performance in West Springfield that was cancelled last october for the same reason. It took 3 months to get a refund. I would have thought that after the episode of cancellations last year she would hire a vocal coach who would teach her how to take care of her voice. I have tickets to the show at gillette stadium foxboro ma. on the 15th of august and if they cancel again that will be the last time I buy tickets to a sugarland show. Get well and learn how to take care of your voice please.......!

I just want to say that I can understand people can get sick but Sugarland is now canceling more concerts at the last minute then any group or single singer that I can remember. The canceled shows started a few months ago with Keith Urban in PA and CT etc. At least the CT fans got name act replacements but the State College PA fans got a college area band that was not worth a $5 admission to a local bar much less a $85+ per ticket price that my husband and I paid. We saw a fantastic show with Keith Urban the year before and no offense to Keith but he was not the headliner at this concert so the show was not a worth the money. FYI... I did some research on Sugarland and found they have a history of canceled concerts at the last minute so I am just saying I will not spend my hard earned money in the future by buying tickets to their concerts. And by the way I do feel blessed that my husband and I have jobs that we allow ourselves a once a year luxury by going to a concert the rest of the year we donate money to help our citizens who are not as fortunate even though my pay has been cut and wages are stagnate and no overtime.

If you purchased a ticket to see Kenny Chesney and Sugarland and if they don't show up you should be told ahead of time and offered a refund. The greedy concert promoters don't want to refund anyone.

Yeah, I just happened to find out Sugarland had canceled
tomorrow night here in PHX. Next time I'll get tickets with Sugarland as the headliners then could get a refund. Feel
better Jennifer!

I think the fans whining and crying are a bunch of jerks who don't deserve the honor of seeing Sugarland live. Give the poor girl a break. Don't listen to these narrowminded ahole's telling you to SUCK IT UP.
Love ya'll!!!

I can't believe people are mad at Jennifer for something that is out of her control! I am a Sugarland fan and I didn't have tickets to any of the concerts, but if I did I would be more concerned about her health then wether I can see her in concert!! What is this world comming to when people get PO'd fopr something that is out of her control. Come on people, get with it and stop being so selfish!

I saw Sugarland in 2007. They did a great concert. But the audience was kind of small for what, I guess, they expected and they sure let us know it. After the show, a handful of us waited outside the back of the theater for autographs. We waited for about an hour, before anyone in the band came out. Up to that time, their tour manager came out several times and never spoke to anyone. When Jennifer and Kristian finally came out of the theater, they immediately jumped on the bus. When we asked the tour manager if they were going to sign autographs, she said they were in a hurry to get to the next location. We waited a while longer to see if they were going to leave. They sat on the bus for over another hour, peeking out the window at the few (5 or 6) of us who remained, until we finally left. After their arrogance, I won't ever buy another Sugarland album. They do a good show, but their fans are what made them. I could see them not wanting to sign 500 autographs. But 5 or 6 would not have taken too much out of their day . . . or "hanging out on the bus" time.
