So they're both in the rap game and they both have intimate relationships with the Kardashian family, but Kanye West and Drake have something else in common—they both cancelled the second night of their respective tours this weekend. Drake was the first to pull the plug on his tour in Philadelphia, PA at about 8:30 pm on Saturday night, angering fans that had already arrived for the 7 pm show. According to Philly.com, concertgoers weren't even aware the concert had been postponed until they were already sitting comfortably in their seats.
"Due to the elaborate nature of tonight's show and an unexpected mechanical issue, Drake’s 'Would You Like A Tour' concert at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia has been postponed until Wednesday, December 18," read a statement from the venue.
Also caught off-guard by the last-minute cancellation? Drake's opening act, Miguel. After tweeting about his disappointment, the "Adorn" singer decided to surprise his fans with a secret (and free!) show later that night:
Want OK! each day? Sign up here!
As for Kanye, "unforeseen circumstances" was given as a reason for his last minute cancellation in Vancouver, BC on Sunday night. While a fine excuse for some, the Vancouver Sun is reporting that his over-the-top set is actually a "logistical nightmare" to set up and tear down.
Ain't nobody got time for that!
