Joel said he had normal pressure hydrocephalus, which has led to “problems with hearing, vision and balance.”

I kind of thought he retired when he stopped doing all the MSG shows he put on.  

 

I know he had a real bad motorcycle accident in the 80s and I think a boxer when he was younger.  That coupled with a lifetime of the rock and roll lifestyle might have caught up to him 😕

It’s not a bad way to live if you can afford it….and even if you can’t. Having it “catch up” at 76? I’d take that, I’m 66.
