Jason Aldean’s concert in Mansfield, Massachusetts got off to a rocky start after the venue was temporarily evacuated due to severe weather.

The 46-year-old country star, who was set to take the stage at the Xfinity Center at 7:30pm ET, shared a screenshot of the evacuation announcement to his Instagram Story shortly after 8pm.

“Severe Weather Alert. We are evacuating the venue. Calmly proceed to the nearest exit and seek shelter in your vehicles. Please stay tuned to the venue social networks for updates,” the announcement read.

The Xfinity Center also posted the announcement on its social media accounts. A tweet from the venue noted that the evacuation was “due to severe weather & approaching lightning.”

The account later provided an update in a tweet that read: “If you are still in the venue, please seek shelter. Do not attempt to evacuate. We are still under a shelter in place with the hope to continue the show once it is safe.” In another update, the Xfinity Center’s Twitter account told concert-goers that a decision had yet to be made if it was safe to proceed with the show.

Around 9:30PM, Aldean revealed that the show would resume as he shared another announcement from the venue. 

“GOOD NEWS! Tonight’s Jason Aldean concert will continue! Doors are open now. Please make your way to the gates and have your tickets open on your phone and ready for scanning to help ease entry back into the venue. Jason Aldean will be on stage at 10:00PM.”

The evacuation comes a little over a week after the “You Make It Easy” hitmaker’s concert at the Blossom Music Center in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio on July 21 was postponed until Sept.17 due to a severe storm that tore through Northeast Ohio, causing heavy rains and flooding.

Aldean’s concert on July 17 in Hartford, Connecticut was abruptly cut short after the singer suffered heat exhaustion and ran off-stage mid-song. In a video that he later shared to social media, he informed his fans that he was “doing fine” and had received IV fluids. The following day, the concert was rescheduled for July 30 and the Georgia native performed that night in Saratoga Springs, New York as scheduled.

The five-time Grammy Award nominee is currently on his 31-date “Desperado Highway Tour,” which kicked off July 14 in Bethel Woods, NY. Aldean’s concert woes come after the music video release of his song “Try That In A Small Town” sparked backlash.

In the music video, Aldean touts how small towns wouldn’t put up with the kind of riots and lawlessness many cities across the country faced during the summer of 2020.

Last week, Aldean denied that “Try That In A Small Town” has racial undertones after critics voiced disdain for the new music video.

“In the past 24 hours I have been accused of releasing a pro-lynching song (a song that has been out since May) and was subject to the comparison that I (direct quote) was not too pleased with the nationwide BLM protests,” Aldean shared with his nearly 8 million fans across social media.

“These references are not only meritless, but dangerous.”
