Earlier this week, Black Label Society had to cancel three shows due to Zakk Wylde vocal problems. The May 9th show in Lexington was postponed to May 23rd, and the May 10th and 11th shows were rescheduled for August 30th and 31st, respectively.

The band announced the incident via Facebook , but fans who were prepared for the 9th were treated to a free performance by Nita Strauss and Jared James Nichols .

"It is with great sadness that Zakk Wylde has lost his voice and is unable to sing at tonight's show. We are rescheduling this show for Monday, May 23rd. Please keep your tickets safe. Same venue, same show," they wrote.

The following day, Black Label Society announced that Wilde was still unable to perform and also postponed the date in question. The show that was scheduled for May 11th in Chattanooga was also postponed to August 31st.
