The Eagles canceled a pair of tour dates for June including the stop at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia on June 14, and  a June 15 date at Hershey Stadium. Both shows were not selling well so the speculation is that they canceled because of poor ticket sales.

The Dixie Chicks and Keith Urban were performing at the concert as well and maybe the mix of country and rock just didn’t go over all that well. The high price of concert tickets seems to be taking it’s toll this year with the cancellation of Limp Bizkit’s tour as well. Shortly after tickets went on sale, the entire Limp Bizkit tour was postponed.

Last evening Taylor Swift won the Best Female Artist Award at the People’s Choice Awards at the Nokia Theatre for the 36th annual ceremony. Carrie Underwood won for Best Country Artist and Lady Gaga took home the award for Favorite Pop Artist. That award was sure to be a surprise to many, but considering the rise in Lady Gaga’s popularity, it shouldn’t have.

Taylor Swift has the top selling album in 2009 with her album “Fearless”, which sold about 3,200,000 just barely beating out Susan Boye’s “I Had a Dream”, which sold about 3,100,000 units.

Some of the other winners of the Peoples Choice Awards included Keith Urban for Favorite Male Artist, Paramore for Best Rock Band, and Mariah Carey for Favorite R&B Artist.
