Jon Bon Jovi wasn’t able to finish one of his shows at Madison Square Garden for medical reasons.
On Thursday, July 23, the legendary musician, 64, ended his concert early after he sang his hit track “Livin’ on a Prayer,” according to Page Six.
“Jon Bon Jovi spoke from stage and told fans he has been battling a sinus infection, which led to the show’s early ending,” a rep for the singer-songwriter revealed to the outlet. “As part of the Bon Jovi residency at Madison Square Garden, Jon has said numerous times that it has been a joy to return to live shows for the band.”
The rep further noted that “updated information will be available shortly.”
An eyewitness told Page Six that the singer apologized to the crowd at the show: “I’m sorry, I’m hurt, and you’re not getting the best of me.”
Per a video shared on X, after the Grammy Award winner delivered the disappointing news, he told concertgoers, “Don’t throw away your ticket stubs, I’m gonna figure something out, OK?”
“Just hold onto it, we’ll figure out how to reschedule,” he added. “But I’m gonna have to cool it for the night.”
The Songwriters Hall of Famer was on the eighth night of his nine-show residency at MSG as part of his Forever Tour. Bon Jovi has one more show scheduled at MSG for Sunday, July 26. After that, he is set to play five shows between August and September in the UK.
