The 86-year-old musician shared the news in a post on Twitter on Wednesday evening.

“To my fans, I’m sorry to cancel my tour, but I have a breathing problem that I need to have my doctor check out. I’ll be back. Love, Willie,” Nelson wrote.

His website lists planned dates up until November 29 across the country, including stops at Toledo, Grand Rapids, Huntington, Florence, Philadelphia, Charlottesville and several other US cities.

Nelson was previously forced to cancel tour dates in February last year due to flu, according to Entertainment Weekly.
