He returned to the resort after allegedly spitting toward a security guard. He was kicked out of the resort.

Zimmerman posted to social media about canceling the shows.

"Y'all know there's nothing I love more than getting out on the road and playing these shows for you," he posted on Instagram . "So it's so hard for me to have to say this, but I have to reschedule tonight's (5/27) and Saturday's (5/30) shows.

"I have not been feeling well and have tried to power through, but I'm not able to give you all the show you deserve. I hate letting y'all down and was really looking forward to these shows, but I gotta take care of myself so I can get back out there stronger."
