Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Collaborations, Concerts / Tours, Performances,
If I ever hear another American Idol hopeful sing Tracy Chapman’s “Give Me One Reason” another time, I swear I’ll scream. That’s why this Chapman cover by two Idol vets is so refreshing—and awesome.
On Sunday night, Season 1 winner Kelly Clarkson and Season 5 contestant Chris Daughtry collaborated on “Fast Car” before a crowd in Nashville. Ticket sales from Daughtry’s concert were donated to help with flood relief in the area.

U2 Officially Delays Concert Tour
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Rock,
Concert promoter Live Nation is having a very bad week.
First, Christina Aguilera announces she’ll be postponing her tour until sometime 2011. Now, U2 is delaying their gigs as well.
The official announcement comes just days after learning that Bono had emergency surgery on his back in Munich, Germany. Although it had already been announced that the band’s stop in Salt Lake City would be rescheduled, the remaining cities in the group’s North American leg will now have to wait as well.

Christina Aguilera Concert Tour Postponed
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Music Videos, Pop,
Christina Aguilera said she’s been doing things that she “normally won’t do” - and this might apply.
Although the singer was set to begin a 20-city tour on July 15, Aguilera has decided to postpone those stops until sometime next year.
While most have been blamed lukewarm response to her single “Not Myself Tonight” for the delay (the song currently stands at #89 on the iTunes chart), Live Nation claims the singer is simply too busy.
“[Aguilera] felt she needed more time to rehearse the show and with less than a month between the album release and tour date, this wasn’t possible,” the concert promoter said in a statement.

Bono Has Surgery, Fate of U2 Tour in Question
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Rock,
UPDATE: All dates from the North American leg have now officially been postponed until 2011.
Bono‘s trip to Salt Lake City has taken an unexpected detour - toward the hospital.
The singer, who is in the middle of a worldwide tour with U2, is currently receiving medical treatment in Germany. “Bono has today undergone emergency back surgery for an injury sustained during tour preparation training,” a statement on the band’s website explains. “He was admitted to a specialist neuro surgery unit in a Munich hospital, and is under the care of neuro surgeon Prof. Dr. Jorg Tonn and Dr Muller Wohlfahrt. Bono will spend the next few days there, before returning home to recuperate.”

VIDEO: Whitney Houston Gives Another Shaky Performance

(NOTE: Don’t try watching the video, just close your eyes and listen.)
Fans walked out of Whitney Houston‘s concert at London’s O2 arena last night because of her poor performance.
The singer’s Nothing But Love tour has been beset with problems since she came to Europe, and last night she admitted her voice wasn’t in the best condition as she failed to hit high notes and abandoned her song “The Greatest Love of All” halfway through.
After a shaky rendition of her most famous song “I Will Always Love You,” Whitney said of her voice: “She don’t want to come, my soprano friend. Sometimes the old girl sings, but not tonight. I want to do it, but she doesn’t want to. She’s getting a little - temperamental, even.”

For some of you, a “Glam Nation” tour featuring American Idol 8 contestants Adam Lambert and Allison Iraheta might be right up your alley. For others, a “Timeless” tour is more to your liking.
Later this summer, Ruben Studdard and Clay Aiken - the two finalists from Season 2 of American Idol - will reunite for their first tour together. The duo will begin their run on July 23 in Asheville, NC and then wind down their 17-stop event on August 14 in Biloxi, MS.
