Per doctor’s orders, Willie Nelson has dropped off the beginning of his “Outlaw Music Festival Tour” with Bob Dylan and will miss the first three dates.
Thankfully, the 91-year-old artist is “expected to make a quick recovery” in time to join the touring festival next week. While Willie is out, his son Lukas Nelson and the Family Band (along with special guests) will step in to perform a special set featuring some of his songs.
