Rod Stewart has cancelled all coming dates on his farewell tour after undergoing a routine heart procedure.<\/p>\n
On 9 August, Stewart, 81, pulled a performance in Ohio at the last minute. After the successful insertion of a coronary stent, he announced that all dates would be cancelled.<\/p>\n
Representatives for the singer told Rolling Stone that Stewart required four weeks off to recuperate.<\/p>\n
Stewart told fans that he was \u201calready feeling better and very much on the mend\u201d, and extended his thanks to the medical staff who took care of him.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m 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,\u201d he wrote in an Instagram story.<\/p>\n
In June, Stewart cancelled shows on doctors\u2019 advice. Later that month, he paused a show in Utah to use an oxygen tank after almost fainting mid-performance.<\/p>\n
Stewart had been due to perform a six-date Las Vegas residency, in addition to other dates across the US and Mexico, as part of the ongoing One Last Time farewell tour, which began in 2024.<\/p>\n
In October, Ronnie Wood told Desert Island Discs<\/a> that he and Stewart had been making music together again ahead of a potential reunion of the Faces, the rock band that formed out of the ashes of the Small Faces when singer and guitarist Steve Marriott left.<\/p>\n Wood joined Stewart on stage at Glastonbury last year when the latter helmed the festival\u2019s Sunday afternoon legends slot<\/a>. Prior to the performance, Stewart revealed that his fitness regime included underwater swimming<\/a>, as recommended to him by Frank Sinatra.<\/p>\n Stewart, a father of eight, recently welcomed his sixth grandchild.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rod Stewart has cancelled all coming dates on his farewell tour after undergoing a routine heart procedure.
