Morgan Wallen joked about the arrest at his first concert back!
Wallen performed a rescheduled show in Oxford, Mississippi. The show came just a day after his public statement on his arrest via Twitter/X.
A year prior Wallen cancelled his show in Oxford minutes before taking the stage. Fans found out following the performances of Wallen’s openers at the time ERNEST and HARDY.
A message appeared on the stage when fans were expecting Wallen to come on saying ““Ladies and Gentlemen, unfortunately, Morgan has lost his voice and is unable to perform tonight. Therefore tonight’s show has been cancelled. Please make your way safely to the stadium exits. Refunds for tonight’s event will be available at point of purchase.”.
Saturday night (April 20th) he made it up to all those fans and returned! He poked fun at last year’s sudden cancellation by putting another message on the screens before doing his signature walkout on stage.
During the show Wallen referenced his recent publicity before playing his song “98′ Braves”.
He said, “In high school, I almost got kicked off the [baseball] team…I was a little rowdy back then. I guess I’m still a little rowdy now.”
