Calvin Harris may be feeling lucky in the wake of last week's car crash that left the Scottish DJ with minor injuries, but he's definitely not feeling 100%.

The producer, whose real name is Adam Wiles, shared Thursday on his official Facebook page that he would be unavailable to perform at his two scheduled appearances in Las Vegas this weekend.

"Adam is still recovering from the injuries sustained in the car accident last Friday. Unfortunately, as a result he will not be able to perform in Las Vegas at Hakkasan tonight, 5/26 and Omnia tomorrow, 5/27," read the message from Harris' team.

Harris canceled his scheduled appearances last weekend in the immediate aftermath of the May 20 crash, in which the Cadillac SUV he was traveling in collided with a Volkswagen Beetle. 

Not content to let his Facebook page do all the talking, Harris, 32, returned to Twitter for the first time since the crash, expressing how grateful he was and thanking his fans for their support and understanding as he recovers.

"Thank you so much for your messages and sorry to any disappointment I caused with the show cancellations," Harris tweeted late Thursday night.

Yet to be heard from as Harris recuperates is girlfriend Taylor Swift, whose social media feeds have been quiet since last week's crash. 

Swift was notably absent from the Billboard Music Awards held May 22, where the songstress was nominated for eight awards and won Top Touring Artist.

The pair have been dating since March 2015.

Representatives for Harris did not immediately respond to The Times' request for comment Friday morning.
