Reflecting on his journey back in 2022, Jackson shared, “I’ve always admired my heroes — George Jones, Merle Haggard, Loretta Lynn, and Charley Pride — who kept performing for as long as they wanted to, as long as they could. I’ve always hoped to do the same, and I’ll keep going as long as my health allows. I’ll give it everything I’ve got.”
This final tour isn’t just a series of concerts — it’s a tribute to a legendary career, a love letter to his fans, and a powerful celebration of timeless country music.
Alan Jackson Opens Up About His Charcot–Marie–Tooth Diagnosis in 2021
In 2021, country music legend Alan Jackson shared a deeply personal chapter of his life during an emotional interview on the TODAY Show. The star revealed that he had been diagnosed with Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease (CMT) — a progressive nerve disorder for which there is currently no cure.
“It’s been affecting me for years, and it’s becoming more and more noticeable,” Jackson admitted. “I know I stumble around on stage, and now I’m having trouble keeping my balance, even when I’m in front of the microphone. It just makes me feel very uncomfortable.”
To help him continue performing, his team made thoughtful adjustments on tour. They built a special stand he could lean on while singing and kept a barstool nearby for when he needed to rest. Despite his health challenges, Jackson’s unwavering commitment to his music and fans has remained as strong as ever.
