PHOENIX -- A summer concert next week featuring Bob Dylan, John Mellencamp and Willie Nelson has been cancelled because of excessive heat in the greater Phoenix area.
Concert promoter Jam Productions said late Friday that the hot weather expected for Tuesday's show at Camelback Ranch in Glendale was a risk "too great for all involved."
It says the heat posed a "serious health risk to the public as well as the working personnel" at the outdoor venue, which is the spring training ground for the Chicago White Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers.
Fans who already purchased tickets will receive refunds from their point of purchase.
Temperatures in the Phoenix metropolitan area were expected to soar to 110 degrees Tuesday.
