Merle Haggard cancels date due to illness

From Z104 (Washington, DC)
Country music legend Merle Haggard has canceled a series of dates in Texas, Arkansas and New Mexico due to respiratory problems.

A message posted on Haggard's official Web site said the 67-year-old singer-songwriter had canceled all shows for the rest of 2004 "due to health concerns."

At first, the posting prompted concern that Haggard's illness might be serious, but his publicist told United Press International Haggard only had a short series of dates scheduled from Oct. 1-10 and he was "just not in top-notch shape to sing" on those dates.
