Willie Nelson drops off more Outlaw Music Fest shows, cleared by doctor to return next week

Willie Nelson‘s 2024 Outlaw Music Festival kicked off last Friday (6/21) in Alpharetta, GA without him; “on doctor’s orders,” he’d been “advised to rest for the next four days” due to illness. He didn’t make it to Wednesday’s Virginia Beach show, either, and he’s now announced that while he won’t perform tonight in Syracuse (Empower Federal Credit Union Amphitheater at Lakeview on June 28) or at this weekend’s NYC-area dates in Wantagh (Jones Beach on June 29) or Holmdel (PNC Bank Arts Center on June 30), he’s been “cleared by his doctors to go back on the road again” starting next week.

Like the other shows he’s missed so far, Willie’s son Lukas Nelson will be joined by special guests to play a set that includes Willie’s classics and other songs at those shows, and the lineups also include Bob Dylan, Robert Plant & Alison Krauss, and Celisse.

Meanwhile, Bob Dylan has been changing up his setlists at his Outlaw Music Festival tours so far.
