Jason Aldean’s latest tour has gotten off to a bumpy start.
The country singer, who launched his Highway Desperado tour without incident on Friday, was forced to halt and postpone his second show in Hartford, Connecticut, on Saturday after suffering heat exhaustion during his performance, according to an Instagram post from the concert’s venue, Xfinity Theatre.
“Yesterday’s Jason Aldean show will be rescheduled for a future date,” the venue wrote Sunday. “We appreciate your patience as we work on rescheduling a new date, as well as the outpouring of well wishes for Jason. A rep has confirmed he is now doing well after experiencing heat stroke during last night’s performance.”
Aldean posted a video message in his Instagram Stories Sunday apologizing to fans for “cutting the show short.” While the “Big Green Tractor” singer said he’s been treated with a couple of IVs since then, he downplayed the severity of the situation and said he’s feeling “a lot better.”
