by

At the recent performance of Billy Joel at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut, there was an unexpected event where he took a tumble on stage. This brief interruption left spectators momentarily speechless. Despite this mishap, Billy Joel managed to regain his footing and completed the rest of the show. However, the incident has sparked curiosity among fans, who are now eagerly seeking more information about what may have transpired.

What happened to Billy Joel?

At Mohegan Sun in Montville, Connecticut on February 22, 2025, Billy Joel unexpectedly tumbled during his concert while performing “It’s Still Rock and Roll to Me.” In the midst of twirling his microphone stand, he lost his footing and fell backward. Remarkably, he completed the song and even delivered one more performance before calling it a night. His band immediately jumped to aid him as the crowd gasped in surprise.

Despite Joel seemingly overcoming his condition, spectators observed that he looked ill during the event. A post on platform X read, “Ouch! Something seemed amiss with Billy Joel; he tumbled as if receiving his ninth vaccine booster.

After he postponed a concert in Florida back in January, citing an undisclosed medical reason, the event has now been moved to late 2025. Though the artist hasn’t spoken about it openly, his calendar continues to be filled with engagements. However, he has not acknowledged any fall.

In the recent announcement, Joel unveiled upcoming concert dates for 2025, which include shows at three significant New York stadiums – Yankee Stadium, MetLife Stadium, and Citi Field. Notably, Joel is making history by becoming the first artist to schedule performances at these venues during a single summer season.

Legendary musicians Rod Stewart, Stevie Nicks, and Sting are set to team up with him for some unforgettable concerts. In an exclusive chat with Billboard, he expressed his excitement about performing at these historic stadiums this summer. Each venue carries a special meaning for him, and there’s nothing quite like the electrifying atmosphere of a New York crowd.

After wrapping up his 10-year stint as a resident artist at Madison Square Garden, where he performed more than 100 shows, Joel will be hosting new concerts.
