Inside Toby Keith’s final sold-out shows just 2 months before his tragic death
NY Post
Despite his cancer battle, Toby Keith kept performing until just two months ago.
The country superstar, who died Monday at age 62, gave three sold-out concerts in Las Vegas in December. Announced as his “triumphant return to the stage,” the trio of shows would ultimately be his last.
Demand for the crooner’s comeback, more than a year after he announced he had stomach cancer in June 2022 (he was diagnosed in 2021), was sky-high.
Tickets were gone in minutes, and it became one of the fastest-selling events in the history of the Dolby Live at Park MGM, Keith’s website says.
The singer performed his single “Don’t Let the Old Man In” from Clint Eastwood’s 2018 film “The Mule” alongside older hits such as “Beer for My Horses” and “Should’ve Been a Cowboy.”
Two weeks after the concerts on Dec. 10, 11 and 14, Keith wrote on Instagram that they were “a damn good way to end the year.”
