Rod Stewart postpones live performances in the US due to an “unforeseen medical procedure,” according to reports from multiple outlets. The change happens shortly after earlier concert disruptions tied to his health, including a previous on-stage episode that forced him to stop a gig.
Earlier this summer, Stewart nearly faints during a performance and uses an oxygen tank, prompting a pause in the show. The Independent also notes the postponement comes about a month after he was forced to pause a concert under similar circumstances. NME adds that he had also cancelled another performance for health reasons.
Across the coverage, the main point of agreement is the reason provided—medical issues and an unspecified procedure—along with the timing, coming soon after a near-fainting incident during a show. Outlets differ mainly in where the postponement applies (including at least one last-minute US show) and in how they describe the sequence of earlier cancellations and pauses.
