Due to health concerns regarding founding member Art Neville, the upcoming four night funky Meters west coast run that was set to begin tomorrow night has been postponed indefinitely. The 67 year old keyboard player finds himself physically exhausted following intensive recording sessions and live gigs over the past six months. Neville expects to perform once again at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival (and surrounding dates) starting in April and then tour with the Funky Meters and the Neville Brothers this summer.
