Darius Rucker has been given the all clear to continue his tour after cutting a gig short due to health issues.
Darius Rucker has been cleared to resume his tour
The Hootie and the Blowfish star, 59, was performing at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City on July 12, when he told fans he physically couldn’t continue any longer and was forced to abandon the show mid-set – promising to make it up to them and offer refunds – and now it has been confirmed the country singer has been given the green light to get back on stage again.
A representative for Rucker told USA Today: “There is no further interruption in his touring schedule. Following vocal rest, Darius has been cleared to resume shows.”
A video filmed during the doomed Atlantic City show, showed Rucker telling the audience: “I’m going to play one more song. I promise you, we are going to figure this out. You’re going to get your money back. I just can’t sing.
“This [has] never happened. I physically can’t sing, and I promise you on everything that I stand for I will make this up to you.”
The audience then helped him by singing the lyrics to Wagon Wheel.
Apologising to the crowd, he said: “I’m so sorry.”
Rucker only managed to fully perform three songs (Life’s Too Short, It Won’t Be Like This for Long and For the First Time) – the fourth being Wagon Wheel, with the crowd’s assistance.
After the show, he took to Instagram to apologise to the audience because it had become clear he would not be able to reschedule the concert.
