Sir Rod Stewart has had to postpone his Las Vegas show on Sunday "due to illness" - just weeks before his forthcoming appearance at Glastonbury's Pyramid Stage. The 80-year-old 'Maggie May' singer, who was recently put on vocal rest, rescheduled his performance set for The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, with a makeup gig now scheduled for June 10.
Following the move, Sir Rod took to Instagram to update his followers and share some exciting tour news.
Promoting the One Last Time tour, he wrote: "I'm bringing The One Last Time Tour your way on July 18th and I've got the brilliant @therichardmarx joining me as a special guest! Tickets go on sale this Friday!" Fans immediately inundated the comment section with reactions ranging from excitement to support.
A chuffed follower posted: "So excited. Can't wait!" while another shared their enthusiasm: "Already got my tickets."
Another added their voice saying: "This is exciting news," reports the Express.
Meanwhile, there was a sense of disappointment among some followers about the Vegas show being moved.
One expressed concern: "I hope your discomfort has improved and that you are now well. Take care of yourself, your health is the most important thing."
One fan expressed their disappointment, saying: "Absolutely heart broken your Sunday show at Caesars was canceled 2 hours before doors opened. Lost air fare, hotel and everything else. Worst part is my broken heart. We were already at Caesars all decked out hitting a slot machine right at the front door. After all that knowing that door would not open seemed like a bad joke. I cried my heart out and went back to hotel. Sad part is show is rescheduled for Tuesday and we fly out Monday. Just one day out of my reach. While my heart is broken, I wish my music idol all the best and pray for his health and wellness which is the most important part."
Another fan added: "What a shame - 3 hrs notice to cancel your show tonight in Las Vegas! A whole trip was planned from UK to see you arrangements made over a year ago! - We can't make the rescheduled date - we are on flight back to UK!".
The artist apologised to fans on social media, stating: "I am sorry to inform you that I'm not feeling well and my show tonight at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace is being rescheduled to June 10. Your tickets will be valid for the new date."
The rocker is set to perform at the Glastonbury music festival in Somerset in less than 25 days, taking to the stage for the Sunday afternoon legends slot.
