The highly anticipated British tour by singer Jah Cure has been postponed. The tour, originally scheduled for October 21-24, ran into problems when the British authorities refused to grant Jah Cure a visa to enter the country because of his prison conviction for rape.
As a result, promoter Castro Brown has rescheduled the tour to March next year, by which time he is hoping the matter concerning Jah Cure's eligibility to enter Britain will be resolved.
"Because the authorities didn't grant us the work visa, the shows have been put back to March 2008, Brown told Splash. "I hope by then the whole thing will be cleared up." Still upbeat and hopeful, Brown said that he is contemplating adding an extra five days to the tour, which is now scheduled to run March 15-17.
