A spokesman for the star put the cancellation down to a serious bout of flu. The rep says, "Elton is terribly disappointed that he is unable to perform tonight's Red Piano show for the people of Sheffield. He has always enjoyed a tremendous reaction from the audiences every time he has performed at the Arena."
The gig is due to be rescheduled shortly. The singer's other concerts next week (beg26Oct09) remain unaffected.
