Billy Joel announced his first show since his doctors warned him against performing due to his brain condition.
The 77-year-old singer took to Facebook to share details about his upcoming show. He will appear at Florida Atlantic University on December 14 for an event titled “Billy Joel: An Evening of Questions & Answers … And a Little Music.” It will include both a Q&A with the rock icon and a performance.
“Florida Atlantic University will welcome singer, songwriter and composer Billy Joel for Billy Joel: An Evening of Questions & Answers…And a Little Music at 7p.m. on Monday, December 14, 2026,” he captioned the post. “Tickets will be available exclusively to currently enrolled FAU students beginning Thursday, November 12, 2026.”
The announcement comes less than a month after Joel shared a discouraging health update, sharing that he hasn’t been cleared to drive. The “Piano Man” spoke to The Hollywood Reporter in October about his neurological condition.
“What the neurologist told me, every time you do a show, it’s like you’re getting a concussion,” Joel told the outlet. He explained that concerts combine loud volume, lighting, and stress all at once. These circumstances led his doctors to warn him against performing.
The “We Didn’t Start the Fire” singer was diagnosed with normal pressure hydrocephalus in May 2025. The condition affects his hearing, vision, and balance. He underwent surgery in 2025 to help combat these symptoms.
Joel’s most recent full concert was in February 2025. He was last on stage in January after he joined a tribute band for two songs in Florida.
