Elton John scraps Alabama show for medical reasons

Sir Elton John scrapped a show in Alabama on Friday night, citing medical reasons.

The rocker was set to perform at the Birmingham Jefferson Convention Complex Arena, but the show has been cancelled.

Full details of who is ill were not available as WENN went to press, but it was clearly a sudden medical issue - the venue's Facebook page featured a photo of the singer's piano onstage an hour before the gig was scrapped.
