"Elton is bitterly disappointed at missing tonight's Red Piano concert in Newcastle... one of his favorite areas to perform," a spokesperson said. "The crowds are always great music fans and not being able to put on this special show for Newcastle is upsetting," the spokesman added. The singer's next scheduled show is at London's Wembley Arena on Tuesday, followed by Liverpool's Echo Arena on Wednesday. |
