Stewart also canceled a few dates earlier this year, including
two in Las Vegas and one in San Diego.
“Following further medical evaluation, Sir Rod Stewart has
successfully undergone a routine coronary stent procedure.
Doctors are pleased with his recovery, and Rod is doing very
well and has returned to his normal daily activities,” a
statement from his publicist read. “On the advice of his
doctors, he will take the next four weeks to recuperate and
regain full fitness before returning to the stage.
Unfortunately, this means he will be unable to continue his
current tour dates.”
It added that “information regarding affected performances will
be communicated by the respective promoters and venues.”
Stewart, 81, was scheduled to appear through Sept. 3 in North
America, including his six-night residency at The Colosseum at
Caesars Palace in Las Vegas and a few dates in Mexico.
“I’m already feeling better and very much on the mend. I want to
thank the doctors, nurses and everyone who has taken such
wonderful care of me,” Stewart said in the statement. “I’m
deeply disappointed to miss these shows and sorry to let my fans
down, but I look forward to getting back on stage and having a
good time with you all again soon.”
The Grammy Award-winning Stewart, whose signature rasp made him
a rock ‘n’ roll legend, has sold millions of records across his
career's many decades. Perhaps best known for hits like “Maggie
May” and “Tonight’s the Night,” he has been inducted into the
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice.
