Historic winter storm prompts Grand Ole Opry cancellation, disrupts major country tours

Country Music's Winter Storm Woes: Grand Ole Opry Cancellation, Tour Reschedulings

A massive winter storm stretching over 2,300 miles across the United States has brought chaos to country music fans nationwide. The iconic Grand Ole Opry in Nashville has canceled its Saturday show and tours on January 24-25 due to safety concerns.

Due to inclement weather, Jason Aldean's performance at Charleston Coliseum has been rescheduled to Friday, August 21, honoring previously purchased tickets for the new date. Country singer-songwriter Drew Baldridge expressed skepticism about the severity of the storm, joking that it might not live up to expectations and questioning meteorologists' forecasts.

Kelsea Ballerini, on the other hand, took a stark contrast between her travels in Switzerland to the snowstorm back home, sharing an update about postponing her show at the Boch Center Wang Theater in Boston. Danielle Fishel announced she would postpone her Dancing with the Stars Live show due to severe winter weather impacting much of the country.

Bunnie XO, podcast host and wife of Jelly Roll, took to social media from the airport, leaving the snowstorm behind and expressing relief about heading to the West Coast to avoid it. The Band Perry canceled multiple shows scheduled for this weekend, rescheduling them later, while Walker Montgomery warned fans to stay warm due to severe winter weather.

As the storm marches east, officials are urging Americans to avoid unnecessary travel and prepare for dangerous conditions. Fans of country music will need to brace themselves for more cancellations in the days ahead.
 
Ugh, what's up with all these last-minute cancellations? ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ Can't a person even plan a weekend without worrying about their concert being snowed out? ๐ŸŒจ๏ธ I mean, I guess it's good that some artists are prioritizing fan safety, but come on, can't we just have one decent Saturday night without any cancellations? ๐Ÿ˜’ And Kelsea Ballerini is literally living her best life in Switzerland while we're all stuck here in the snow... ๐Ÿ™„
 
I'm low-key annoyed that the Grand Ole Opry got canceled ๐Ÿค•. I mean, who wants to reschedule their weekend plans? And Jason Aldean's performance was gonna be lit! Guess we'll just have to wait till August to rock out. ๐Ÿ˜’ I feel for Drew Baldridge though, questioning the forecast can be super frustrating. Anyone think this storm is gonna cause more than just a little disruption in country music land? โ›ˆ๏ธ
 
omg what is goin on with this snowstorm ๐Ÿ˜ฑ it's like everythin is gettin canceled left and right, but at the same time i feel bad for all these poor country fans who had plans to see their fave artists live... i mean, i'd be freakin out if i was a fan too! ๐Ÿคฏ and what's up with Drew Baldridge thinkin it might not even happen? is he just trollin or somethin? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ also, kelsea ballerini seems super chill about postponin her show tho... like, good for her i guess? ๐Ÿ™ƒ anywayz, gotta feel bad for all these folks who are stuck indoors w/ nothin to do
 
Ugh ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ I'm a little disappointed about the Grand Ole Opry cancellation... I mean, I get it, safety first and all that ๐Ÿ’ฏ. But can't they just reschedule for another day instead of the whole weekend? It's gonna be a bummer for fans who were looking forward to a Saturday show ๐Ÿ˜”. And Jason Aldean's new date is kinda far away... August 21st feels like, what, forever? ๐Ÿคช Still hoping the storm isn't as bad as everyone says it's gonna be tho โ›ˆ๏ธ
 
I'm like "ugh, how can it be so cold already?" โ„๏ธ but at the same time, I'm all "come on, don't you guys have umbrellas or something?" ๐Ÿคฃ and what's with all these tour reschedulings? Can't they just make it work? I mean, Jason Aldean is like "oh, I'll just rock out in August instead"... but then again, maybe that's not so bad, who doesn't love a summer concert? ๐Ÿ˜Ž
 
๐ŸŒจ๏ธ ugh, snow is just so overrated... 1st time i've ever seen them cancel shows on tv ๐Ÿ“บ, like what's next? a music festival cancelled bc of rain โ˜”๏ธ? anywayz, feels bad for all the artists stuck in the middle with these reschedulings ๐Ÿ•ฐ๏ธ
 
This winter storm is getting crazy! I was looking forward to the Grand Ole Opry show, but safety always comes first. I feel bad for fans who already bought tickets, though ๐Ÿค•. Can't blame Drew Baldridge for being skeptical, but at least Kelsea Ballerini is keeping her fans updated about what's happening with her shows. Hopefully, everything gets back to normal soon and country music can keep on truckin' ๐Ÿ’ช!
 
ugh this is so frustrating!! ๐Ÿ˜ฉ i was looking forward to the grand ole opry show and now its cancelled ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ can't believe the tour reschedulings too... august 21 feels like forever away ๐Ÿ˜ด i love jason aldean but this just sucks ๐Ÿค• at least bunnie xo is heading out of the storm zone lol what's up with all these cancellations tho? ๐Ÿค” seems like they should've checked the forecast better ๐Ÿ’ก
 
Ugh, country music fans are gonna have a tough time this winter ๐Ÿค•. First off, I'm not buying Drew Baldridge's skeptical vibe about that massive snowstorm - he should know better! ๐Ÿ˜’ Meteorologists do their thing and we gotta trust 'em. On the other hand, Kelsea Ballerini's Switzerland trip sounds like a sweet escape from all this snow ๐ŸงŠ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ.

It's crazy how tour reschedulings are happening left and right. Jason Aldean's show in Charleston is being moved up to August - that's a looong time away! ๐Ÿ’ฅ As for Bunnie XO, glad she made it outta there safely ๐Ÿšฃโ€โ™€๏ธ. Can't say I blame Danielle Fishel for postponing her Dancing with the Stars Live show tho, those winter conditions sound nasty โ„๏ธ.

I'm just gonna keep an eye on these cancellations and updates - stay safe everyone! ๐Ÿ’ฏ
 
this is so crazy!! ๐Ÿคฏ like, i was checking out some videos of kelsea ballerini's snow adventures in switzerland and then find out she has a show postponed back home because of this huge storm... ๐Ÿ˜” i feel bad for fans who were looking forward to see her perform. and what's up with dwow baldridge not taking the storm seriously? ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ like, i get it if he's worried about it affecting his tour dates but still, some people are actually hurt by the whole thing... ๐ŸŒŸ
 
This winter storm is gettin' crazy ๐ŸŒจ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ฌ! I feel bad for all the fans who were lookin' forward to their shows, especially with the Opry cancellation on Saturday... that's like a big ol' bummer ๐Ÿ˜ž. Some of these artists are bein' super understanding though, like Kelsea and Danielle, who are just tryin' to prioritize everyone's safety ๐Ÿ™. I hope they can reschedule their shows soon, 'cause this storm is gonna make for a pretty rough ride โ„๏ธ. As someone who's all about keepin' it chill, I gotta say... stay warm, country music fans! ๐Ÿ’ก
 
๐Ÿ˜’ this is getting crazy! like how can a snowstorm ruin an entire weekend? my fave artists are gonna get their lives ruined ๐Ÿค• & what's up with all these rescheduling? it's already august and they're pushing everything to then? it's gonna be so hard for fans who were planning on buying tickets ๐Ÿค‘ & also, like, can't we just have a little bit of sunshine in the middle of winter or something โ˜€๏ธ
 
"Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it." ๐ŸŒจ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ช When storms like this one come knocking, we gotta adapt & prioritize our safety above all else! ๐Ÿ˜Š
 
I'm a bit surprised by the unpredictability of this massive winter storm ๐ŸŒจ๏ธ. I mean, 2,300 miles is quite an extensive area, and it's not like they're seeing this kind of weather often enough that folks would be prepared for such widespread cancellations. It's almost as if the snowstorm has become a sort of existential threat to country music fans nationwide ๐Ÿ˜ฌ. The Grand Ole Opry canceling its show and tour reschedulings is just one example, but there are so many other artists affected โ€“ it's almost like the entire ecosystem of concerts is being disrupted ๐ŸŽถ. I do feel for fans who've already bought tickets; it's always tricky when events get postponed or canceled at the last minute ๐Ÿ˜ฌ.
 
This country music scene is like a snowball fight - one minute you're having a blast at the Grand Ole Opry, the next you're stuck inside sipping hot cocoa wondering where it all went wrong lol ๐Ÿ˜‚. I mean, who needs a concert when you can have a snow-day, right? But seriously, these tour reschedulings and cancellations are no joke - stay safe out there, country fans! ๐ŸŒจ๏ธ๐Ÿ’จ
 
๐ŸŒจ๏ธ ugh i hate waiting till summer for concerts lol like i get it snows gotta be cancelled but can't we have some spring country vibes already ๐Ÿ˜’ at least kelsea's got that switzerland trip to escape with ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™€๏ธ bunnie xo's leaving the airport looking all relieved ๐Ÿšซ and good on jason aldean rescheduling his show for august haha so many snow day woes
 
omg, it's like, what even is a country music fan supposed to do right now? ๐Ÿคฃ first one I'm worried about is Kelsea Ballerini - she was just chillin' in Switzerland, and then BAM! she has to deal with this snowstorm back home. that's so extra. i feel for Danielle Fishel though, postponing her show must be super stressful. and can we talk about how Bunnie XO is literally the ultimate escape artist? like, flying out of the airport and leaving all that drama behind? ๐Ÿ›ซ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜Ž
 
This snowstorm is gonna be a total bummer for country music fans ๐Ÿค•! C'mon, a winter storm that's 2,300 miles wide? That's like, crazy! I've been checking the forecast all morning and it just keeps getting worse โ›ˆ๏ธ. I feel bad for Jason Aldean having to reschedule his show, though - he must be super bummed about all those fans who were counting on him ๐ŸŽธ.

And poor Kelsea Ballerini, having to postpone her Boston show too... ๐Ÿ˜” I've been a huge fan of hers since she was on The Voice ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ. Danielle Fishel's Dancing with the Stars Live show is also getting canceled? That's like music to my ears if you're a fan of shows (I'm more of a video game gamer, lol) ๐ŸŽฎ.

Can't wait for Bunnie XO to get away from all this snow and sunshine on the West Coast โ˜€๏ธ. I guess it's just another reason to stay indoors and binge-watch some Netflix while everyone else is stuck outside ๐Ÿ˜‚.
 
ugh, i feel so bad for all the country music fans stuck at home ๐ŸŒจ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜”. 1st off, can we even get a reliable forecast out there? Drew Baldridge is right tho, those meteorologists are always hyping up the ' severity' of these storms... maybe it's not that deep ๐Ÿคฃ.

anywayz, gotta give props to Kelsea Ballerini for being super transparent about postponing her show in Boston. at least she's keeping us updated ๐Ÿ“…. and I'm loving Bunnie XO's airport vibes ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ. heading to the west coast sounds like a solid escape plan to me ๐Ÿ˜Ž.

it's just frustrating that these cancellations keep coming down the pipe, though ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ. more shows rescheduling = less cash for artists and fans... ๐Ÿ’ธ๐ŸŽถ. gotta stay hopeful tho - spring is on its way, right? โ˜€๏ธ
