Despite starting his set late, Yoakam delivered a powerful performance that showcased his signature blend of honky-tonk and country rock. However, the intense heat and humidity took a toll on the 67-year-old artist, leading to a brief spell of heat exhaustion. After a short break, he returned to the stage to perform two more songs before ending his set early.
