Elton John has rescheduled his 2021 Yellow Brick Road tour to 2023 due to his health condition. The singer issued a statement on his social media on Thursday.
“It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I am forced to reschedule the 2021 dates of my Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour in Europe and the UK to 2023,” he mentioned in the statement. “At the end of my summer break I fell awkwardly on a hard surface and have been in considerable pain and discomfort in my hip ever since.”
The 74-year-old singer-songwriter added that despite “intensive” treatment, the pain has only gotten worse, and is making it harder and harder for him to move around. “I have been advised to have an operation as soon as possible to get me back to full fitness and make sure there are no long-term complications,” he explained. “I will be undertaking a program of intensive physiotherapy that will ensure a full recovery and a return to full mobility without pain.” (IANS)
