Ween have cancelled the final few dates of their 40th anniversary tour. Following the first three shows of this month’s leg, in Bonner, MT and Spokane, WA, they’ve cancelled the remaining dates, scheduled for this week in Seattle, Portland, and Eugene. “We regret to announce that we will have to cancel our shows this week in Seattle, Portland and Eugene,” a statement from the band reads. “We love performing for the best fans in the world, and we are beyond disappointed we won’t be able to do these shows. All tickets will be refunded at point of purchase. Thanks as always for the love and support.”
These cancelled shows come after Ween cancelled their April tour earlier this year. Deen Ween’s statement at the time said he needed to “step away from performing live in order to preserve my mental and spiritual well being, and instead focus on myself and loved ones.” Neither he nor the band have elaborated on the reason behind these most recent cancelled dates.
UPDATE: In a message on Twitter, Gene Ween writes, “Hey guys. I’ve been getting tons of messages, know that I’m perfectly fine and just as disappointed. Love, Gene”
