Last weekend, the country star made headlines for going the extra mile to help fans out when hegave a pair of young concertgoers cash to cover the cost of their ticketsafter discovering 12-year-old Bo Fenderson and Tanner Hale spent 10 hours stacking wood in order to make money to purchase the tickets for last Friday’s show in Bangor, Maine.
While performing, Combs spotted a the boys holding a sign and read about their journey aloud from the stage, according to localNBC affiliate WCSH. At that point, he opened up his wallet and gave the pair $140 to help cover the ticket costs.
“How much were you tickets? $100? $200? Y’all paid $200, a hundred dollars apiece. Oh my God, I only got $140 right here,” the singer said, according toCBS affiliate WABI. “Y’all want that, pay yourselves back. I’ll get you some more.”
Earlier this week, before starting his Saturday night concert at Maine Savings Amphitheater, Combs told concertgoers that he refunded everyone’s tickets and would play for free due to vocal issues.
“[My voice is not] what I think it should be for you guys having to pay for it,” hecontinued, adding: “So, we’re going to put on the best free show we could put on, and I want you guys to know how upset I am to have to tell you that tonight, but all I want you to know is that we’re going to do the very damn best.”
