Willie Nelson has canceled another concert on his tour, and this time there’s no new date set.
On Wednesday, just hours before he was supposed to perform in Virginia Beach, a message was posted on Nelson’s social media saying the 91-year-old singer wouldn’t be able to make it.
This came shortly after Nelson canceled his first show in Georgia because he wasn’t feeling well.
The first bit of bad news came on June 21 when Willie Nelson canceled his first scheduled performance for the Outlaw Music Festival Tour.
“We’re sorry to say that Willie Nelson isn’t feeling well and, on doctor’s orders, needs to rest for the next four days,” a statement on social media explained. “He’s expected to recover quickly and join the Outlaw Music Festival tour next week.”
However, less than a week later, Nelson had to cancel another show.
“Willie Nelson won’t be performing at tonight’s show in Virginia Beach. We hope he’ll be back on tour very soon.”
Even though Willie Nelson couldn’t perform, Bob Dylan, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, and Celisse were still set to perform. Nelson’s son, Lukas Nelson, and his band were also going to play their own set, including some of Nelson’s classic songs.

As of June 27, Willie Nelson’s website still lists his next tour date in Syracuse, NY on June 28. However, since there’s no definite return date, it’s uncertain if Nelson will be able to perform.
