Rod Stewart’s latest health setback follows two canceled Las Vegas residency shows in June. During a June 2 performance at Caesars Palace, Rod Stewart said a severe sinus infection spread to his ears and eardrums, leaving him unable to hear properly and affecting his balance. On June 19, Rod Stewart paused his Utah performance of “Young Turks” to use an oxygen tank positioned near the stage after nearly fainting, according to video shared online. Stewart later posted a photo of himself beside a grand piano, while fans responded with support and reminded the longtime performer that his health matters more than any concert date.
