A bout of food poisoning has caused the postponement of Elton John's scheduled concert at Tucson Arena.

The Arizona Daily Star reports that the show originally scheduled for July 21, 2010 was nearly sold out with about 8,800 tickets purchased. Organizers say the British rocker will perform on July 22, 2010 night instead.

A spokeswoman for the Tucson concert venue says Elton apologizes for the inconvenience caused by his illness, but doctors say he will be fine to take the stage on July 22, 2010.
