The Go-Go’s Cancel Summer Tour

June 9, 2010 (LOS ANGELES, CA) – It is with great regret that the Go-Go’s announce today the cancelation of Happily Ever After, their summer farewell tour. The tour was scheduled to kick off July 7 at Lilith Fair San Diego, and conclude in Austin, TX on July 27. The band will also be unable to perform live on Good Morning America, scheduled for July 16 in New York’s Central Park.

The news comes as a result of guitarist Jane Wiedlin injuring herself after a 20-foot fall while hiking near her home in Northern California a couple of weeks ago. Jane is scheduled for ACL replacement surgery for her knee in the coming weeks, with a prognosis of up to a year recovery time.

The band is heartbroken and hopes their fans will send best wishes for Jane’s speedy recovery. In the meantime, tickets can be refunded at point of purchase.

  2. Jane,
    I hate to hear about your injury and I wish you the best on your recovery. I have been a fan since you guys started and I was in elementary school, it was so cool to have an all girl band. I haven’t got to see you in concert and was going to the Myrtle Beach show. Get well and hopefully you all can reschedule next year.

  3. Jane,
    So sorry to hear about this terrible fall! Your stage performance is a joy to watch you kick it out and spinning! I hope all your Go-Go’s fans will be able see the band next year! I’m really a solo fan of Jane and fan member back in the day. I also make a special trip to Sacramento for the comic book signing. It was really good to meet you. I was wondering if Belinda and yourself could play 1 each solo hit, my choice would be RUSH HOUR! I hope and pray the surgery go well with a full recovery. Get Well Soon! John

  4. I am so sorry to hear of your injury. I hope you have a successful surgery and heal quickly. I was stoked to see you in Portsmouth, Virginia this year, I guess I will have to wait a bit later.

    Hugs and wishes and please try to make friends with gravity!
