Johnny Depp arrived in Boston Friday using the assistance of a cane ahead of his concert — which was originally postponed due to his ankle injury.
The “Pirates of the Caribbean” star, 60, appeared to be all smiles despite the use of a mobility device ahead of his Friday night show with his band, the Hollywood Vampires.
Depp wore a black-and-white oversized plaid blazer with a layered button-up and white T-shirt underneath.
He paired the look with dark trousers and a white skull-laden bandana tucked into his pocket.

The actor also wore layered necklaces, complementing his outfit with a blue hat and sunglasses.
As Page Six previously reported, Depp’s band was forced to postpone three of their US tour dates on May 29 when the “Blow” actor incurred an injury.
“We are sad to share that the Hollywood Vampires will be rescheduling our three US tour dates this coming week,” the band — also comprised of Alice Cooper, Joe Perry and Tommy Henriksen — wrote via their social media pages at the time.
Depp’s band, the Hollywood Vampires, wrote that the “Rum Diary” actor had sustained a “painful” ankle injury at the time. MEGA
“Johnny has sustained a painful injury to his ankle following his recent appearances and has been advised by his doctor not to travel.

“He is devastated by this turn of events, but looks forward to resting up so all four Vampires can bring their absolute best to the tour in Europe.”
The shows were originally set for May 30, May 31 and June 1 in Manchester, N.H., Boston and Bethel, N.Y., respectively.

However, the show must go on.
Depp — who won a high-profile defamation lawsuit against ex-wife Amber Heard just over a year ago — returned to tour life after the three-day hiatus.
On June 8, he was pictured wearing a boot on his leg while in Bucharest, Romania.

And a week after the “Rum Diary” star’s injury, a fan asked the band’s touring photographer, Kyler Clark, about how Depp was holding up.
Clark responded, writing, “He’s healing! It’ll take time to fully heal though. He’s in a boot that he can walk on.”
As of Saturday, Depp only has the Manchester and Bethel show left on his roster before the “Edward Scissorhands” star can really get off his feet.
