The 81-year-old British singer became visibly winded during the performance, forcing him to momentarily pause the show. Addressing the crowd, Stewart candidly admitted, “I nearly f***ing fainted there. Would you mind if I sit down for this one?” He used an oxygen tank on stage and remained seated for the remainder of the set to finish the performance, News.Az reports, citing The Independent.
The health scare comes amid a string of recent tour cancellations for the singer. Stewart previously called off shows in San Diego and Las Vegas after battling an acute upper respiratory infection, laryngitis, and the flu.

The singer recently faced backlash from some fans after he was spotted on a private jet drinking and traveling to watch Scotland play in the World Cup—just one day after canceling a concert in Chula Vista, California, due to vocal issues.
Stewart has already postponed his upcoming dates at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre to September 2027. The current North American leg of his “One Last Time” tour is heavily promoted as his final farewell to large-scale touring.
