Elton John cancels show whilst fans were waiting for him to come on stage.
Sir Elton John has angered fans by cancelling a show in Orlando half an hour after he was meant to take the stage.
According to a tweet from his official Twitter page, Elton was suffering with an ear infection and was advised by his doctor not to perform.
The statement said, "Elton and his band play 100% live and with imparied hearing and ear pain, he wouldn't have been able to deliver the performance his fans deserved."
The legendary singer had already cancelled a Tampa show a few days earlier, and his PR team have announced makeup dates for the postponed concerts.
The Tampa show will now take place Nov. 4, 2019 at Amalie Arena. The Orlando show is scheduled for March 18 at the Amway Center

Some fans were outraged though, as they had travelled by plane and had hotel rooms booked.
Dang. Elton John’s on my bucket list. Spend $$ for tickets and an airline ticket. Flew with a cold and am spewing it on my daughter and her roommates. Three nights “sleeping” on the living room floor. And EJ’s sick, too. #EltonJohn #Tampa #Cancelled O’well. #amwriting on NyQuil. pic.twitter.com/P8yc5IwoVc
