Sir Rod is set to become the first artist to have headlined Glastonbury and played its legends slot
Sir Rod Stewart has cancelled a string of concerts in the US as he recovers from flu, ahead of his Glastonbury legends set later this month.
The 80-year-old rock star is due to play the coveted teatime slot on Sunday, 29 June – 23 years after he last appeared at the Somerset festival.
Sir Rod announced on Instagram he was scrapping four dates and rescheduling another two that were due to take place over the next eight days.
“So sorry my friends,” he said. “I’m devastated and sincerely apologise for any inconvenience to my fans. I’ll be back on stage and will see you soon.”
He signed off “Sir Rod”, along with a heartbreak emoji.
He also listed the four shows he was cancelling – in Las Vegas and Stateline, Nevada – as well as two he plans to reschedule in California.
