Rod Stewart's Health woes Force Another Concert Cancellation
Another concert by Rod Stewart gets called off
Hey there, folks! Get ready for some grapevine gossip 'cause the legendary Rod Stewart's got more than just his gravelly voice buzzing lately. It's a tale of health battles and show cancellations.
The Old Dog'sgotflu, Y'all
Our 80-year-old rockstar has caught the flu, and it's not letting him perform like he usually does. The docs say he needs some extra TLC to recover, so Rod's gotta skip tonight's gig at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Vegas.
He's already pulled a fast one on his fans in Vegas once this week, since he wasn't feelin' too hot on Monday and had to back out. But fear not, the tickets remain valid for June 10. Same bat-time, same bat-channel, y'all!
Checkin' out Vegas and Beyond
June 7 and 8 are on the horizon for more Vegas performances, and Stewart's still got a bunch of other U.S. gigs planned for this month. But, hold on a sec, there's more to this story.
Bloody Glastonbury Festival's callin' his name on June 29, and he's aiming for a mini-reunion with his old mates from Faces, his long-time pal Ronnie Wood included. Should be a hootenanny, eh?
The Road to Retirement Ain't Clear Cut
Now here's a twist for ya: Last year, Rod announced he'd be stepping back from massive tours but would still be rockin' it on the stage. Sounds like he's aimin' for a more chill vibe in smaller venues, minus the glitz and glamour of big tours.
But hey, who knows? He might change his mind. After all, he's got that Rolling Stone attitude, as we all know, right?
Health Issues and Heartbreak
Ah, the life of a rockstar - disease and show cancellations don't care about your status, do they? It wasn't all bad news for Rod. He treated prostate cancer in 2017, and he underwent thyroid cancer surgery back in 2000.
In May, he had to rest his pipes after a gig in Italy, and in August 2024, he postponed several concerts due to COVID-19. But Rod's been a trooper through it all, and we can't wait to see him back in action.
