Former Eagles guitarist Don Felder suffered a medical emergency during his performance on the Royal Caribbean Independence of the Seas cruise in Miami on 13 February 2025.
Felder fell faint midway through performing his Eagles classic ‘Tequila Sunrise’ and was taken off stage.
In this video he looks pale and loses his balance.
A statement on Don’s socials posted on 14 February reads:
We appreciate everyone’s concern regarding Don Felder’s abrupt stop to his show last night on the Rock Legends Cruise. After recieving medical attention he was deemed to be suffering from dehydration. He was given fluids, and is feeling much better.
To ensure he has ample time to rehydrate and recover fully, we are working on rescheduling today’s shows and adjusting the remainder of the cruise schedule accordingly.
Thank you for your understanding, and remember—drink your water!
