Cancelled because his issue is tinnitus. It won't kill him, but it's
impossible to know when (or if) it will subside.

'Wrote Hunter in a message to fans: "Hey Kids, Im afraid Im not very
well.It happened out of the blue three weeks ago; I got hit heavily by
tinnitus. Its unrelenting and on doctors orders, Ive had to cancel
everything for the time being. Ive had it on and off for years, but
its always slid away. This time its stayed - it knocks the stuffing
and the confidence out of you. You lot know I love to tour - been
doing it for 50 years. I hate to let everybody down, but Im stuck and
I cant even go to the post box at the moment never mind a tour.
Unhappy is not the word for it. Ive had tests - no tumors, but its
loud and incessant and frankly scary."'
