Ratdog Tour Is Off
Bob Weir & Ratdog‘s impending fall tour has been canceled due to exhaustion. The band was scheduled to hit the road tomorrow, October 7, and tour through November.
New tour dates will reportedly resume in the spring.
A statement released by Weir’s representative read: “Since January, Bob Weir has worked continuously on music dates for RatDog and The Dead, promotional work for his career retrospective album, and a number of nonprofit appearances.
“It was all simply too much, and he’s reached a point of complete physical exhaustion. No one regrets more than he the postponement of these shows, but he and his management concluded that his long-term health was a greater priority. That and his desire to give his fans only the best possible performance outweighed the difficulties of rescheduling the tour.”
