Neil Young is gearing up to drop a collection of unreleased Crazy Horse early recordings called Early Daze on Friday (June 28), but unfortunately he won't be celebrating the release on the road after announcing the rest of The Earth Love tour has been canceled.
The trek was already put on hold due to illness, with shows in Chicago, Austin, and Dallas being postponed. It was supposed to resume on July 8, but now Young says there will be "a big unplanned break."
The singer-songwriter shared the disappointing news on his official website. "The Love Earth Tour has been a great experience for us so far. GREAT AUDIENCES AND MUSIC. WE HAVE HAD A BLAST!" he wrote. "When a couple of us got sick after Detroit’s Pine Knob, we had to stop. We are still not fully recovered, so sadly our great tour will have a big unplanned break. We will try to play some of the dates we miss as time passes when we are ready to rock again! We know many of you made travel plans and we apologize for the inconvenience. Thanks for your understanding and patience."
"Health is # 1," he added. "We want to stay and do more shows and more albums for you…. and for for us."
