Willie Nelson cancels another tour date amid health concerns
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (Gray News) - Willie Nelson will not be performing Wednesday night at the Outlaw Music Festival in Virginia Beach.
According to a social media post, the 91-year-old country music legend will miss Wednesday’s scheduled performance at the Veterans United Home Loans Amphitheater.
The statement didn’t say why Nelson would not be performing but the announcement comes days after he had to cancel last week’s appearance with the Outlaw Music Festival in Georgia due to the singer “not feeling well.”
The country music star’s team said doctors informed him that he needed to rest for a few days.
Nelson is one of the main headliners for the Outlaw Music Festival.
Lukas Nelson, Willie Nelson’s son, and the family band along with other special guests are now scheduled to play in place of Willie Nelson, according to his representatives.
Bob Dylan, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, and John Mellencamp are expected to take the stage as scheduled.
Representatives for Willie Nelson said he is expected to rejoin the Outlaw Music Festival Tour shortly.
The tour’s next scheduled stop is Friday in Syracuse, New York.
