Perry was hospitalized Sunday night after leaving the stage during a Hollywood Vampires concert in Brooklyn. An administrator at Coney Island Hospital confirmed to the Associated Press that the 65-year-old Perry underwent tests, but no further information about his condition was released.
“Joe Perry is doing well and resting and appreciates all your good wishes,” Hollywood Vampire representative Sujata Murthy said to the AP.
Hamilton tweeted Monday that Perry’s condition was “better than we all first feared.”
Thankfully, Joe seems to be better than we all first feared. Here’s hoping he’s back on stage soon doing what he loves to do!
