A) they should have been playing Swedenrock at those dates!! B) I believe it is time for them to stop supporting and start headlining these classic rock shows!
Just a thought!

That sounds like my ideal show! If it's not too expensive, I'm going, but I expect it'll be more than I could afford.

Exactly my first thoughts! I know that they reach a wide and big audience with these shows but boy, aren't they tired of playing 45 minute slots and thus getting stuck by playing only the obvious songs?

Whitesnake is cancelling due to a health related issue with Coverdale. Don't know if this will impact anyone else, or if the UK tour will go on with just Foreigner and Europe... Assuming the Coronavirus is not still impacting shows that far out.

Whitesnake is cancelling due to a health related issue with Coverdale. Don't know if this will impact anyone else, or if the UK tour will go on with just Foreigner and Europe... Assuming the Coronavirus is not still impacting shows that far out. According to a statement issued by Coverdale, all the tours are cancelled. Tour Cancellation Statement March 23rd 2020 Once again it breaks my heart to be the bearer of even more sad news affecting Whitesnake's touring schedule for this increasingly challenging year, 2020. All tours, Europe, UK & US, are being cancelled owing to health issues, related specifically to a bilateral inguinal hernia requiring me to have surgery. At this time, I can only offer You & my amazing musicians in Whitesnake & our crew my love & my sincere apologies & also my regrets to my friends in Foreigner, Europe & Sammy Hagar for this unforeseen personal health issue, which I will have addressed at the first possible opportunity. Until then, I send my love to you & yours & hopefully we will meet again along the road. David Coverdale Whitesnake March 23rd 2020

I saw that, but like here in the US.. he was not the headliner on the Hagar/WS/Night Ranger tour, so I don't see that tour cancelling, maybe a replacement band added to the bill, or just dropping to Hagar/Night Ranger... I maybe forgetting, I thought Foreigner was the headliner on the UK shows...so I thought they might continue just Foreigner and Europe. Who knows, with this, and everything else going on around the world right now.
