Billy Joel is postponing his next show at Madison Square Garden after the singer was ordered on vocal rest for a viral infection.
The "Piano Man" singer was set to perform at The Garden Monday, Dec. 19, as part of his long-running franchise at the New York stadium.
"Billy Joel is under strict doctor's order for vocal rest due to a viral infection and as a result, his concert scheduled for Monday, December 19 at Madison Square Garden is postponed to Friday, June 2," Joel's spokesperson said in a statement Sunday.
All tickets for the December show will be honored in June, but that rescheduled performance is subject to chance if it conflicts with a playoff game.
