Rod Stewart Cancels Cleveland Show As Doctors Prescribe More Rest Following ‘Minor Medical Procedure’
The 81-year-old singer postponed his Cincinnati show on Sunday night (Aug. 9) due to the unidentified medical issue.
Sir Rod Stewart has canceled his scheduled performance at Rocket Arena in Cleveland, following doctors' advice to rest for at least 48 hours. The cancellation occurred less than 24 hours after Stewart postponed his show in Cincinnati due to a minor medical procedure that necessitated immediate attention. Stewart expressed disappointment at missing the show but appreciated his audience's understanding.
Refunds are available at the point of purchase. No comment has been provided by Stewart's spokesperson regarding the Cleveland cancellation or his medical condition. Stewart is currently on his One Last Time tour, which has had a few previous interruptions, including a June 19 performance in Utah where he paused the show due to appearing unwell and using an oxygen tank.
He also faced backlash a week prior when he canceled a show in San Diego due to an acute upper respiratory infection causing laryngitis and was later seen attending a Scotland World Cup match in Boston. Following a week-long run in Las Vegas, Stewart is set to continue his North American tour starting September 1st with performances in Minnesota and Illinois, followed by shows in Mexico and a double billing at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado on September 2-3.
