On Monday, he tweeted that he's talked to medical experts, stadium people and local officials across the country, and says despite the progress in the fight against COVID-19, there's still too much that's unknown.
Chesney says the tour is moving to 2022, where he says "I feel better about us all being together safely."
"What we're hearing changes daily...anything is possible...but if we can only do two-thirds of the audience? Who decides who doesn't get to come to the show we've been waiting for?" he wrote.
