Rod Stewart will perform in New Jersey in July.

Stewart had been planning to perform with Billy Joel at Yankee Stadium on July 18, but that show was cancelled because of Joel’s current health condition.
Stewart’s tour is currently scheduled to end in December. No other New Jersey shows have been announced.
Stewart is not retiring. When the tour was announced in November, Stewart, who turned 80 in January, posted to Facebook:
This will be the end of large scale world tours for me, but I have no desire to retire.
I love what I do, and I do what I love. ♥
I’m fit, have a full head of hair, and can run 100 meters in 18 seconds at the jolly age of 79.
I’d like to move onto a Great American Songbook, Swing Fever tour the year after next — smaller venues and more intimacy. But then again, I may not …
He signed the note, “The Ambiguous Sir Rod Stewart.”
He also posted in April: “I shall never retire! I was put on this earth to be a singer and will keep doing so for as long as the good lord lets me.”
