Eddie Money to Undergo Heart Procedure, Then Resume Summer Touring

エクスクルーシブ

Eddie Money will NOT be using his 2 tickets to paradise anytime soon — doctors have ordered him to take a break and take care of a heart condition before he performs another show.

The “Take Me Home Tonight” singer has been experiencing shortness of breath recently and will undergo a heart valve procedure this week to address the issue.

According to his rep … Money was encouraged to have the minor surgery last week, but he didn’t want to let down his fans who bought tickets to his 2 Memorial Day Weekend shows.

Money powered through a Saturday night show in Detroit, then flew to Arizona to perform at Harrah’s Ak-Chin Casino on Sunday … but his breathing difficulties prevented him from coming out for an encore.

We’re told the audience was informed Eddie wasn’t feeling well, and EMT’s on-site checked him out to make sure he was okay.

The good news for Money and his fans … his heart procedure’s scheduled during a break in his summer concert series, and he expects to be fully recovered soon and back at it in mid-June.
