“Due to an unforeseen but minor medical procedure that required prompt attention, Rod Stewart’s performance tonight in Cincinnati has been postponed,” the venue revealed. “Rescheduling is currently underway, with additional information to follow on Tuesday.”

“All previously purchased tickets will be honored for the rescheduled date,” the post continued. “Rod is expected to make a quick recovery and looks forward to returning to Cincinnati.”

Stewart’s next scheduled show is happening Tuesday in Cleveland. A complete list of dates can be found at RodStewart.com.
