Willie Nelson has canceled another concert on his tour, and this time, there’s no new date set for when he’ll perform.
On Wednesday, just hours before he was supposed to take the stage in Virginia Beach, a message was posted on Nelson’s social media saying the 91-year-old singer wouldn’t be able to perform as planned.
This announcement came shortly after Nelson had already canceled his first tour show in Georgia because he wasn’t feeling well.
The initial news came on June 21, when Nelson had to cancel his first scheduled performance for the Outlaw Music Festival Tour.
“We’re sorry to tell you that Willie Nelson isn’t feeling well and, on doctor’s advice, needs to rest for the next four days,” a statement on social media explained. “He’s expected to get better soon and rejoin the tour next week.”
But less than a week later, Nelson had to cancel another show.
“Willie Nelson won’t be performing at tonight’s concert in Virginia Beach. We hope Willie will be back on tour very soon.”
Although Nelson was unable to perform, Bob Dylan, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, and Celisse were still scheduled to perform. Nelson’s son, Lukas Nelson, and his band were also expected to play their own set, along with some of Nelson’s classics.
As of June 27, Nelson’s website still shows his next scheduled tour date in Syracuse, NY on June 28, but with an uncertain return date, it’s unclear if Nelson will be able to perform.
Whatever is keeping Willie Nelson from performing, we hope he feels better very soon.
Please share if you’re a fan of Willie!
