Rod Stewart’s recent admission that his days were “numbered” alarmed several of his ardent followers.
The renowned rock star has had to postpone concerts due to a slew of health issues in recent times. Stewart, who is 79 years old, gained notoriety last month for the aforementioned statement.
The immensely well-known performer promptly sought to address his “numbered” remark, maybe in an effort to allay people’s worries about his health.
Rod Stewart raised concerns about his health in late July when he said in an interview that his days were “numbered.” The musician announced on Instagram a few days later that he was calling off his 200th show celebration.
“I’m really sorry for missing this celebration of the 200th show. I can definitely not work with strep throat, but most people can. I’m completely devastated. I’ve been eagerly anticipating this concert for a very long time,” Stewart stated in her letter.
I apologize sincerely for any inconvenience this may have brought about. We will thankfully be going back in 2025, and I hope to meet you then.
Two days subsequent to that declaration, further unfavorable information surfaced.
The announcement said, “We regret to announce that Rod Stewart’s shows in Stateline, NV tonight and Lincoln, CA on August 10 have been postponed while the singer recovers from a summer strain of Covid-19.”
Fans naturally started to question whether the I Don’t Want To Talk About It singer was trying to deliver serious news after piecing together Stewart’s statement about his days being numbered prior to a succession of cancellations.
In fact, the 79-year-old felt compelled to elaborate on some of his remarks from that same interview.
Stewart remarked, “I know my days are numbered, but I’m not afraid.”
“We are all in the same basket since we must all die away at some point.
“I’m going to make the most of these final years of my life.”
“I say few, perhaps another fifteen [years].”
However, Stewart said in an interview with The Sun that he continued to go out after a good concert.
He clarified, “I can’t stay up all night, get drunk, go crazy, and still have a voice just like that. I’m not like I was in the ’70s and ’80s.”
“I have to guard my voice before and after every event these days.
“The need to do it increases with age. It is heavily influenced by water. But you believe that I simply have water on my motorcycle?
“Hey, buddy, you’re speaking with Rod Stewart. After every show, we lose our minds. Thirteen of us—six of them women—are excellent musicians, and I serve them drinks. We adore it to the fullest.
