First Toby Shows Since Cancer Diagnosis

Toby Keith?will headline two shows at Dolby Live at Park MGM on December 10 and 11. They will be the 62-year-old country singer’s first headlining shows since revealing his stomach cancer diagnosis in June 2022.

“It’s been a while,” Keith said in a YouTube video. “You know what I’ve been doing — been on the old rollercoaster, but Almighty’s riding shotgun. He’s letting me drive for some reason, but we’re making a big announcement. I’m doing a little deal and thought I’d start in the great Las Vegas.”

Tickets for the two shows will go on sale on Friday, October 27 at 10 a.m. PT through Ticketmaster.

A Very Kelly New Year

Kelly Clarkson has added four more dates to her Planet Hollywood residency, “Chemistry,” which had been presumed finished following its 10-show run this summer.

The 41-year-old “American Idol” alum returns to the Bakkt Theater on two already monstrously busy weekends — New Year’s Eve (December 30 and 31) and Super Bowl LVIII (February 9 and 10).

Tickets for the new dates go on sale Friday, October 27, via Ticketmaster, with a presale starting on Tuesday, October 24.
