Elton John Postpones Shows Due to Testing Positive for COVID-19

Although the Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour has just picked up where it last left off in 2020, Elton John has had to postpone it even further due to recently testing positive for COVID-19.

In a reported statement, John’s representatives have reassured that the iconic singer is fully vaccinated, boosted, and is only experiencing mild symptoms.

John is, hopefully, to resume the tour this coming Saturday in Little Rock, Arkansas after having to cancel last night and tonight’s shows at Dallas’ American Airlines Center.
