Billy Joel is canceling all of his upcoming concerts due to a medical condition.
That includes a show that was scheduled for Oct. 4 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara with fellow Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Stevie Nicks.
The Billy Joel cancelation comes “following (Joel’s) recent diagnosis of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus,” according to a post on the singer-songwriter-pianist’s website.
“This condition has been exacerbated by recent concert performances, leading to problems with hearing, vision, and balance,” a post on Billy Joel’s website continues. “Under his doctor’s instructions, Billy is undergoing specific physical therapy and has been advised to refrain from performing during this recovery period.
