An Evening with Adele

An Evening with Adele was the debut concert tour by English singer-songwriter Adele, in support of her debut studio album, 19. The tour was unusual in that it included few dates in the United Kingdom, Adele's home country and the territory where 19 was the most successful. Instead, the tour focused heavily on North America.

Adele concert chronology

In 2008, Adele canceled her tours in Germany, Japan, and the United States. The cancellation was reported to be due to family issues.^[1] In a candid interview with Nylon magazine, Adele explained: "I was really unhappy at home and there was a lot of family issues going on... But I got better again - I stopped drinking." "We refer to that period as my E.L.C., my Early Life Crisis. Now I'm sober, I'm like, 'I can't believe I did that.' It seems so ungrateful."

and the tour gained some notoriety when she cancelled tour dates in 2008 in order to spend time with her then-boyfriend, an incident she later expressed regret over.^[2]

One of the last performances on the tour took place at the historic Hollywood Bowl. Etta James was supposed to appear at the performance but cancelled at the last-minute due to illness and was replaced by Chaka Khan. ^[3] The last performance of the tour was at the North Sea Jazz Festival.^[4]
