Guitarist Bob Weir Cancels All Tour Dates

Guitarist Bob Weir has cancelled all of his tour dates he had planned with his band RatDog.

The Grateful Dead founder says his tour with RatDog won’t kick off this week as planned. He posted a message on Sunday on RatDog’s website saying “circumstances have necessitated that all scheduled tour dates for Bob Weir & RatDog are being cancelled.”

The 66-year-old didn’t offer more details.

Weir also is cancelling a September performance at the Lockn’ Festival with Furthur, the band he formed with fellow Grateful Dead member Phil Lesh. Weir fell onstage at a concert last year. Lesh told the crowd that Weir had been suffering from a strained shoulder.
