Kanye West cancels remaining ‘Saint Pablo’ dates, including Saturday in Dallas

Kanye West has canceled the remainder of his “Saint Pablo” tour, including a scheduled stop Saturday at Dallas’ American Airlines Center.

According to a report from Pitchfork, West’s spokesperson said all tickets will be refunded at the point of purchase.

Saturday’s performance would have been West’s second in as many months, following a sold-out September concert at the same venue. Of that show, I wrote, “Leave it to human lightning rod Kanye West to find a way to restore awe to the arena concert, delivering a visceral, poignant spectacle that also manages to outpace just about every other artist working similar-size (or even larger) rooms.”

West’s most recent shows, in Sacramento and San Jose, were marred by late starts, early exits, political rants — West, who says he did not vote, told an audience he would’ve voted for Donald Trump, prompting a backlash — and crowd antipathy.
