Jason Aldean cancels gigs after Las Vegas shooting

Jason Aldean cancels gigs after Las Vegas shooting: Country music star Jason Aldean has cancelled a string of concerts after 58 people were shot dead while watching him perform in Las Vegas on Sunday.

The singer has called off three shows that were due to happen this week in Los Angeles, San Diego and Anaheim.

He said getting back on stage in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on Thursday 12 October would be “very tough and emotional”.

Aldean was playing at the Route 91 festival when a gunman fired into the crowd. A further 527 were injured.

In a statement, Aldean – one of America’s biggest country stars – said: “As a result of what happened in Las Vegas this week, we have decided to cancel this coming weekend’s shows.

“I feel like out of respect for the victims, their families and our fans, it is the right thing to do. It has been an emotional time for everyone involved this week, so we plan to take some time to mourn the ones we have lost and be close with our family and friends.

“Our plan is to resume the tour the following week in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Our first time back onstage will be a very tough and emotional thing for us, but we will all get through it together and honour the people we lost by doing the only thing we know how to do – play our songs for them.”

He also thanked friends and fans for “the outpouring of love” he has received, adding: “You guys have no idea how much you have helped get us through this tough time.”
