Another tour date has been canceled by Willie Nelson, and there is no planned return date.
Hours before Nelson was set to take the stage in Virginia Beach on Wednesday, a message was posted on his social media accounts alerting followers that the 91-year-old singer would not be making the trip as planned.
Only a few days had passed since Nelson postponed his tour’s Georgia opener due to “not feeling well.”
The first piece of bad news arrived on June 21, when Nelson had to postpone his Outlaw Music Festival Tour’s first show.
A social media message read, “We regret to inform you that Willie Nelson is not feeling well and has been advised to rest for the next four days per doctor’s orders.” “Next week, he is anticipated to resume his Outlaw Music Festival tour following a speedy recovery.”
Nelson did, however, announce yet another cancellation less than a week later.
“There will be no Willie Nelson performance at the Virginia Beach event tonight. We anticipate Willie joining the tour again soon.
Bob Dylan, Robert Plant, Alison Krauss, and Celisse were all planned to perform, despite Nelson’s inability to do so. In addition to playing some of Nelson’s greatest hits, Lukas Nelson, the son of the late great, was scheduled to perform a solo set.
Nelson’s website still lists his next tour date as June 28 in Syracuse, New York as of June 27, but it’s unknown if Nelson will be able to make it due to an undetermined return date.
We hope Willie Nelson gets well quickly, whatever it is that is preventing him from performing.
If you’re a fan of Willie, please share!
Reflecting on Toby Keith’s Journey Through Photos: From Early Success to Personal Passions
Toby Keith loved his life and his favorite bar. He was a country singer who died at 62 on February 5th, almost three years after finding out he had stomach cancer. He often talked about his life with cancer, his love for his wife and kids, and his passion for music.
Toby was born in Clinton, Oklahoma, on July 8, 1961. He fell in love with music when he was 8 years old after his grandma gave him a guitar. He started writing songs as a teenager and played in local bars with his band Easy Money after finishing high school.
After working in oil fields for a while, Toby focused more on his music career. His first album in 1993 was a big success, especially the song “Should’ve Been a Cowboy.”
