TULSA, Okla. — Toby Keith is returning to the big stage after a tough battle with stomach cancer.
The country music star from Clinton, Okla. announced two shows at Dolby Live at Park MGM in Las Vegas.
“Y’all been waiting a long time to hear this. I’ve been waiting a long time to do this. I’m back, come see me. You’ll have the best time, I will too. We’ll never forget it. Can’t wait to see you there. Let’s go,” Keith said.
Tickets went on sale on Oct. 27 for Keith's Dec. 10 and 11 shows. Keith's management says the tickets sold out in two minutes.
Because of the overwhelming response, Keith will play a third show on Dec. 14.
Tickets for the third show will go on sale on Nov. 3 at 10 a.m.
While this is the first show of its size since Keith took a hiatus, he made public appearances at hometown shows and performed at the People's Choice Country Awards, where he won the Country Icon Award.
