Steve Miller Cancels 2025 Tour
Steve Miller Band frontman Steve Miller has cancelled his 2025 tour, according to a note posted to his website.
“The Joker” singer and Rock ‘N Roll Hall of Fame inductee is cancelling at dates on his 31 date tour, which was set to kick off Aug. 13 at Soaring Eagle Casino in Mount Pleasant, Michigan and run through Nov. 8 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.
“You make music with your instincts,” Miller wrote in a note on his website announcing the cancellation. “You live by your instincts,” he added, “Always trust your instincts…”
For Miller, those instincts told him to cancel his lengthy tour due to “the combination of extreme heat, unpredictable flooding, tornadoes, hurricanes and massive forest fires make these risks for you our audience, the band and the crew unacceptable.”
Miller didn’t detail any specific weather events in his post cancelling the tour, which stops in 19 different states and includes some big name venues like Bethel Woods Center for the Arts in Bethel, New York; Hollywood Casino at Penn National Race Course in Grantville, Pennsylvania; Etess Arena at Hard Rock Live in Atlantic City, New Jersey; the Pinewood Bowl Center in Lincoln, Nebraska; the Orion Amphitheater in Huntsville, Alabama and the Mountain Winery in Saratoga, California. Miller was also scheduled to perform at this year’s Minnesota State Fair.
“You can blame it on the weather…the tour is cancelled,” Miller wrote. “Don’t know where, don’t know when. We hope to see you all again,” he concluded, before signing off and encouraging his followers to “please take care of each other.”
As of now, no information regarding refunds has been released to the public.
