Guitar legend Jimmie Vaughan has put his touring plans on hold as he starts treatment for cancer.
A statement on Jimmie’s socials reads:
We are sorry to announce that Jimmie is unable to tour this summer. Jimmie has begun treatment for a curable form of cancer and will be taking this time off to heal. He is expecting to make a full recovery and restart his tour in the fall and his family appreciate all your understanding, support, and respect for their privacy at this time.
We will rebook Jimmie in the near future.
Your ticket purchase will be refunded ASAP.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and wish Jimmie a rapid and complete recovery.
