“Don’t throw away your ticket stubs, I’m gonna figure something out, OK?” the singer told the crowd. “Just hold onto it, we’ll figure out how to reschedule.” He added, “But I’m gonna have to cool it for the night. I feel great. I’ll see you again soon, goodnight.”
Before walking off stage, Bon Jovi hugged the band and gave fans a thumbs up as they cheered.
In a statement to Rolling Stone, a spokesperson for Bon Jovi said, “Jon Bon Jovi spoke from stage and told fans he has been battling a sinus infection which led to the show’s early ending. 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. Updated information will be available shortly.”
