We are safe, and we can do this show.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIf it wasn\u2019t for Him, I would have canceled this show tonight. I would have,\u201d Langley said, citing her Christian faith in God. \u201cAnd I decided to because of Him right there, and that\u2019s the only reason. Because like I said earlier tonight, every time I see \u2018do not fear\u2019 in the Bible, I underline it. Every single time. And I\u2019m not gonna live in fear.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tLangley canceled the Tulsa performance on Friday, Oct. 9, just hours before doors were scheduled to open. \u201cDue to a serious security threat involving the safety of my fans, the venue staff, and my team, the incredibly difficult decision was made to cancel tonight\u2019s show,\u201d she said at the time. \u201cYour safety will always mean more to me than anything else. I refuse to put anyone in harm\u2019s way.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDuring the Lubbock concert, Langley addressed how it felt to be responsible, at least in part, for a decision that would impact 15,000 people. \u201cI decided to make the decision that I can live with the rest of my life. And that\u2019s what I did,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen it comes to keeping you safe and making sure that this show is a safe place for us to come and enjoy our music, then it will happen. But the second it feels like it\u2019s not, I\u2019m not doing it. No concert is worth a human life. And so I would have made yesterday\u2019s decision 10 billion times over. I\u2019d do it tomorrow, and I\u2019d do it the next day.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tLangley\u2019s tour will continue on Oct. 12 and 13 with back-to-back nights at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, followed by shows in Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota, and more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ella Langley returned to the stage in Lubbock, Texas, on Saturday after canceling her performance in Tulsa, Oklahoma,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":464345,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[30943,168,170,169],"class_list":["post-464344","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-lubbock","tag-ella-langley","tag-lubbock","tag-lubbock-headlines","tag-lubbock-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/464344","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=464344"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/464344\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/464345"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=464344"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=464344"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=464344"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
