So much for “Pink Skies.”

Zach Bryan says he was “forced” to cancel his Tulsa, Okla. concert at H.A. Chapman Stadium on Friday due to severe weather conditions.

In his five years of touring, “I’ve never cancelled a headlining show,” the 30-year-old country singer captioned his Instagram post sharing the disappointing news. “I pissed off plenty people this morning trying to ‘play anyways.’ If I had ANY say in this, things would be different.”

The second slide of Bryan’s social media post is a screenshot of his text exchange with someone explaining the predicted weather conditions: wind gusts in excess of 60 mph, hail, and intense lightning.

“Are you kidding,” replies the Oklahoma native.

“I am being forced by my team to cancel the show tonight due to the threat of extreme and dangerous weather,” reads the graphic in his Instagram post. “I’ve never canceled a show in my life, but I unfortunately don’t have a choice in the matter.”
