As the official Internet media sponsors of this summer's Wotapalava tour, PlanetOut.com regretfully passes along some bad news. The Pet Shop Boys and CAA just announced the postponement of the tour until next year. Wotapalava, which was being billed as the first-ever music tour to target the gay and lesbian market, was due to visit 18 American cities this July and August.

The last-minute withdrawal of Sinead O'Connor and the difficulty of finding a suitable replacement with such short notice have led the producers to believe that it would be unwise to proceed with the tour this summer.

"This has been a difficult decision to make, as the idea of Wotapalava being the largest gay-friendly tour has attracted much enthusiasm and interest, and so much work has already gone into its organization," said CAA department head of music Rob Light. "We are already making preparations to ensure that Wotapalava will become a reality next year."

Pet Shop Boys and CAA wish to apologize to those who have already purchased tickets and to thank those who have put so much effort into Wotapalava. Ticket refunds are available at the point of purchase.

"We have made this decision with the greatest of reluctance," commented Pet Shop Boy/Wotapalava creator Neil Tennant, "but it seems impossible to proceed without a complete lineup of artists. We look forward to coming to America next year."
