The duo of Outkast, Andre 3000 and Big Boi both seem to be having a rough week. We reported earlier today that Andre 3000's mother passed away, and now we get news of a slight disturbance in Big Boi's life, although nowhere near Andre's. A knee injury is forcing Big Boi to postpone his current tour dates.
Big Boi was on his "Shoes For Running" tour when he injured his knee at a show this past weekend in Chillicothe, Illinois. The ATlien required surgery following the injury, which a spokesperson for the rapper says is finished. Nonetheless, Big Boi needs to postpone some show dates.
HHDX reports that the dates running through the month of May and June will likely be rescheduled for September.
We'll update you when we get more details on the rescheduled dates.
[UPDATE: The rescheduled tour dates for Big Boi's "Shoes For Running" tour have been announced.]
As we reported at the end of May, 1/2 of Outkast, Big Boi, had to postpone some of his "Shoes For Running" tour dates because of a knee injury (which happened on the road as well).
