On Oct. 22, the night before the big race, hip-pop artist Post Malone is scheduled to headline an event that also features a DJ set by Jack Bia.
Malone was hospitalized on Sunday due to breathing issues and pain. A week earlier at a St. Louis concert, he fell through an opening in the stage. He finished the show and was later diagnosed with bruised ribs.
