Jon Pardi has to postpone his upcoming European tour and posted the news on Instagram this week, although he did not say why.

Jon posted to Instagram, "I'm sorry to announce that we've had to postpone the U.K. & European leg of the Mr. Saturday Night World Tour." ⁣

He continued, "Details on rescheduled dates will be available soon, so please hold on to your tickets. If you are unable to make the rescheduled date, refunds are available at the point of purchase. This sadly also means we have to cancel our headline appearance at The Long Road Festival. ⁣

Pardi concluded, "Appreciate your all understanding as we get new dates on the calendar, and really excited to get over there to the fans soon."

Many fans reacted to the post, including one fan from England, who wrote, (sad face emoji) "Was so excited for Manchester next week!" Another fan responded to the post in Dutch (Netherlands), asking if there would be more information on his website soon. One more fan asked in frustration, "Thank you for your understanding." - How can we understand? You've given no reason or explanation whatsoever."

Jon has dates scheduled in late September back in the U.S.

In April, Pardi was surprised when he was playing Stagecoach in his native California. His friend Guy Fieri directed him and the attention of his thousands of cheering fans to a video. The video was of Opry member and Country Music Hall of Famer Alan Jackson officially inviting the California native to become the newest member of the Opry.

After the stage invitation, Jon said, "I moved to Nashville chasing a dream at 22 years old, and now I'm here. I love you guys, and I love country music. Thank you, everybody. This is an amazing night. I'll never forget it." He added, "I always wondered how this might happen if it was going to. I never imagined anything this great. That was incredible."

Nancy Brooks has been working in the country music industry for almost 30 years. She has interviewed pretty much any country star you can think of. In the late 1990s, she started working with Dolly Parton. And yes, Nancy reports that Parton is as sweet as you would think. She loves her life in country music and has been backstage at every CMA Awards show since the late 1990s. Many of her stories are from her one-on-one interviews. She was there at the beginning of the incredible careers of many music superstars today, including Taylor Swift, Shania Twain, and Blake Shelton, and has interviewed them multiple times throughout the years.
