Wireless really missed the mark with the 20th anniversary. Was a chance to celebrate UK music/culture over the past 2 decades but got drake to headline for 3 days? We like drake but THREE DAYS???!

@luv4leya Hey! Yeah sure - so we’d just look to do a 5 min prerecorded interview over FaceTime or Zoom. You’ll have seen the reaction has been mixed so we’re just keen to hear a variety of views. It will then be used in our programme which goes out at 12:45

All I’m saying is I’ll be very annoyed if I don’t see Len and Fimi there in some capacity. The underground scene is booming, and all these spaces just don’t seem to be noticing that. They should be championing that. Not no side stage business either. Main stage them.

Yeah, Drake doesn’t need them three days. Wireless majorly fucked up. It’s a disgrace to UK music, disrespects the artistry, and some kind of festival planning cuckold fantasy. I think Drake wants to be shown love, and Wireless lapped it up. It signals a bigger issue here.

@alittlebitdan I just told him, nothing matters and said a line of the song and he was fine. It does sound like they were targeting single men, I wonder if there's been trouble at previous gigs

@ChappellRoan This is the 3rd show I've had cxd/resch😭💸 Spending big money to attend gigs has been normalised by crazy rich americans going to the eras tour but the reality we've forgotten about is that it's reg people spending hard earned money to see you in a cost of living crisis.

Due to scheduling conflicts, I have had to make the extremely hard decision to cancel my Paris and Amsterdam shows. I have rescheduled my Berlin show to 23 September. I am so sorry & very disappointed :( I promise I will be back. I’m heartbroken 💔 thank you for understanding.

@ChappellRoan We’ve booked flights and a hotel, flying from the UK in less than 24 hours. Not cool at all. What a waste of money

I think people would be less annoyed at chappell if perhaps she gave more than 2 days notice for a concert reschedule.

We booked Chappell Roan's London dates, which were cancelled and rescheduled. We can’t attend the new dates. We managed to get Berlin resale tickets, but they were just cancelled and moved with less than two days' notice. We can't attend the new dates! It's a shitshow. 💩😭
