The first wave of bad news came on June 21, when Nelson canceled the first scheduled performance of his Outlaw Music Festival Tour.
“We regret to inform you that Willie Nelson is not feeling well and, per doctor’s orders, has been advised to rest for the next four days,” a statement issued on social media said. “He is expected to make a quick recovery and join the Outlaw Music Festival tour next week.”
However, less than a week later, Nelson announced another cancellation.
“Willie Nelson will not be performing at tonight’s show in Virginia Beach. We expect Willie to return to the tour shortly.”
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 lists his next scheduled tour date in Syracuse, NY, on June 28. However, 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.
