The announcement also comes following the many canceled or postponed tours by other big artists like, Nine Inch Nails, Garth Brooks, Stevie Nicks and BTS. Similar concerns over rising cases of the delta variant of COVID-19 — or, in some cases, positive tests by band and touring members — have caused Florida-Georgia Line, Colorado’s String Cheese Incident, Neil Young, Pixies, Counting Crows, Korn and others to cancel individual shows or runs of shows.

Promoters and touring artists have increasingly responded by setting rules that include proof of vaccination or negative COVID-19 tests with 48 to 72 hours of the show, at minimum, while some artists have set even stricter rules for their shows.
