Despite an initial lineup shared Wednesday (May 27), Morris Day is denying that he and his band The Time will play the Great American State Fair event celebrating America’s 250th anniversary.
In an Instagram post shared later in the day, Day wrote, “Contrary To Rumor, Morris Day & The Time Will Not Be Performing At The ‘GREAT AMERICAN STATE FAIR.'” A caption for the post adds “It’s a no for me,” with a smiley-face emoji wearing sunglasses.
