[CANCELLED: May 13, 2022] Sinéad O’Connor [rescheduled from April 5, 2020 and September 18, 2021]
Lots has been going on in Sinéad O’Connor’s world in the last, oh, decade or so. It’s no real surprise that this show was postponed or cancelled or whatever it is. In addition to inner turmoil, she also suffered the death of her son. And she announced she will not be performing live in 2022 “due to continuing grief over the tragic loss of her beloved son Shane”
On March 24, City Winery sent out this message:
Dear Ticket Holders,
Due to circumstances beyond our control, City Winery is forced to reschedule Sinead O‘Connor‘s performances in NYC, Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago.Many of you have been holding onto tickets since 2019, and we are grateful for your patience and support. We’ve had to navigate multiple reschedulings due to the pandemic, Sinead‘s personal tragedy, and travel restrictions. We understand the disappointment and don’t want you to wait any longer for a refund.

I have seen Sinéad O’Connor four times. although the last time was in 1998.
I assumed I’d never see her again for a whole host of reasons.
I was pretty stunned to see that she announced a U.S. tour. She was playing at City Winery in Philadelphia. I have never been there. Then I saw how much the tickets were!
I loved her voice back in the 90s, but since then she has gone all over the place (literally). I wasn’t sure she even sounded any good anymore, so I balked at the price and opted not to get tickets.
I have since heard that her show was really good. I’m not sure how upset I am about missing this, but maybe if she reschedules it will be at a larger (cheaper) venue.
