WALLA WALLA – The Walla Walla Fair and Frontier Days announced today (Wednesday) that 3 Doors Down will be unable to perform their Aug. 27 concert. Lead singer Brad Arnold explained it’s due to his health.

“I got the diagnosis that I have clear cell renal carcinoma that pasticized into my lungs,” Arnold said. “It’s stage four and that’s not real good, but it’s going to force us to cancel our tour this summer.”

Walla Walla Fair and Frontier Days joins thousands of 3 Doors Down fans in extending its support to Arnold and the band during this time.

Fair Manager Greg Lybeck said a new headliner will be announced on Monday, May 12 at 10 a.m. At that time, information will also be available for fans who have purchased 3 Doors Down tickets.
