Jim Lauderdale Cancels Shows

From Lauderdale's Myspace page:

Jim is sad to announce that he has cancelled his dates for the month of May. His doctor has placed him on strict vocal rest for the next 4 weeks. This includes the following:

May 9th - Asheville, NC
May 10th - Kingsport, TN
May 15th & 16th - San Francisco, CA (opening for Hot Tuna)
May 17th - Crystal Bay, NV (opening for Hot Tuna)
May 19th - Portland, OR (opening for Hot Tuna)
May 20th - Seattle, WA (opening for Hot Tuna)
May 24th - Topanga Canyon, CA
May 29th - Nashville, TN

The Asheville and Nashville shows will definitely be rescheduled for the future. Jim hopes to make it back out to West Coast very soon, and would like to apologize to his fans for missing them this time around. He is looking forward to getting back on the road as soon as he is healthy again!
