The message went on to thank fans for their “understanding and patience.”
“Health is # 1. We want to stay and do more shows and more albums for you…. and for us. With love and thanks to all of you from Crazy Horse….. Neil, Micah, Ralph and Billy.”
In addition to the scrubbed Toronto stop, several other planned Canadian shows have been impacted, including a July 11th headline slot at Ottawa Bluesfest. On Facebook, organizers said punk rock band The Offspring will take Young’s place on the bill that also features the Cancer Bats and Silverstein.
In 2022, Young, 78, swore off touring until he could find a way to do so that was environmentally friendly.
He wrote that the last show he played with Crazy Horse in Toronto at the Queen Street venue was “so amazing.”
“It was a very special night. We captured it. Nothing new. Just my old songs and the Horse, but I felt so great, my singing was free and easy,” he wrote. “I can’t remember a night like that in decades.”
