Justin Townes Earle postpones Minneapolis show, enters rehab
Singer-songwriter Justin Townes Earle announced Wednesday via a statement on his website that he is postponing the remaining dates on his fall tour and entering a rehab facility. There’s no information on when or if the shows, including Earle’s Oct. 9 gig at First Avenue, will be rescheduled.
Earle was arrested last week after he reportedly appeared drunk and belligerent at a show in Indianapolis, and had to be physically removed from the venue. He has since released a statement claiming that “reports surfacing online about the incident in Indianapolis are not accurate.” Earle has a court date Oct. 19.
