fans are going to be left heartbroken with the sudden cancellation of all his upcoming concerts.He, who is still one of the most well-liked touring performers worldwide, even with the dearth of new material, has left fans reeling with this news.

The Piano Man singer has apparently put his music on pause. The 76-year-old legend has cancelled all upcoming shows after being diagnosed with Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus, a brain disorder that causes balance and cognitive issues.

The recent diagnosis has forced Billy Joel to cancel all 17 of his scheduled concerts at stadiums in North America and England, as per a report by Rolling Stone

His team confirmed that all remaining tour dates have now been cancelled. According to a statement from Joel's team, "Recent concert performances have exacerbated this condition, leading to problems with hearing, vision, and balance."

Joel will go to physical therapy and take time off to recover, as ordered by the doctors. About 0.2 percent of adults in their seventies suffer from the disorder, which impairs cognitive function, bladder control, and gait. Billy is receiving specialised physical therapy as directed by his physician, and he has been told to avoid performing during this recuperation phase.

He is grateful for the first-rate treatment he is getting and is determined to put his health first. Joel issues a statement saying, "I truly apologise for disappointing our audience and appreciate your understanding," as quoted in a report by Rolling Stone.

A condition known as normal pressure hydrocephalus occurs when the brain's ventricles fill with too much cerebrospinal fluid.

According to an explanation on the Cleveland Clinic's website, "It can affect several brain-related abilities, including thinking and concentrating, memory, movement, and more." "NPH can occasionally be cured, but its symptoms closely resemble those of dementia."

Joel's final performance was held at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut, on February 22.

He revealed a month later that he would be taking a four-month hiatus from touring because of a "medical condition" that necessitated physical therapy and surgery.

All concert tickets will be fully refunded, and fans are sending positive vibes his way.
