Elton John postponed his sold-out show set for Wednesday at Amalie Arena due to an ear infection. Doctors asked him to take the break, as well, according to a news release.

Tickets for the midweek show on the "Farewell Yellow Brick Road" tour will be valid for the rescheduled date, which has yet to be announced. If someone cannot make the new date, refunds will become available.

About 20 minutes after John's Orlando show was set to begin Tuesday night, it was called off over the arena's public address system, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
