Just days before the kickoff of CMA Fest, Alan Jackson has canceled his performance.<\/p>\n
No details were given, but last year when he revealed his diagnosis with Charcot-Marie-Tooth, he said that it made performing increasingly difficult.<\/p>\n
Alan has been open about his health condition and has also voiced his determination to keep performing for fans as long as he possibly can.<\/p>\n
In the recent past, Alan talked about his neuropathy and neurological disease that he inherited from his dad.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere’s no cure for it, but it’s been affecting me for years. And it’s getting more and more obvious. And I know I’m stumbling around on stage. And now I’m having a little trouble balancing, even in front of the microphone, and so I just feel very uncomfortable.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
CMT (Charcot-Marie-Tooth) is a chronic neuropathy condition that results in nerve deterioration and impacts muscle function, movement, and balance.<\/p>\n
Brothers Osborne and Old Dominion have now been added to fill the empty time slot on the CMA stadium stage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Just days before the kickoff of CMA Fest, Alan Jackson has canceled his performance.","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":29801,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_img_display":"Yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[508,103,3867,696,1006,165],"class_list":["post-29867","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-country-music-news","tag-alan-jackson","tag-brothers-osborne","tag-charcot-marie-tooth","tag-cma-fest","tag-cmt","tag-old-dominion"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-11 08:31:55","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"react_link":"https:\/\/country929.com\/blogs\/country-music-news\/2022\/06\/alan-jackson-cancels-cmt-fest-performance\/","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29867","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29867"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29867\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29868,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29867\/revisions\/29868"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29801"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29867"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29867"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29867"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
