 Lionel Richie Ends St Paul Concert Early After Feeling Unwell On Stage


Lionel Richie ended the opening night of his tour early after feeling unwell during a performance in St Paul, Minnesota on Wednesday, June 24.


The 77 year old was about 55 minutes into the show at Grand Casino Arena when he paused while performing “Dancing on the Ceiling” and sat down on a stage platform. He told the audience he was feeling dizzy.


Richie continued the set by moving to the piano to perform “Three Times a Lady” while seated, before taking an unscheduled break from the performance.


His band remained on stage for a short period as recorded music played, before also leaving the stage during the pause.


After around 40 minutes, saxophonist Dino Soldo informed the audience that Richie was unwell and would not be returning to complete the concert.


Video clips from the show circulated on social media, including footage of Richie sitting during the performance.


Audience members described mixed reactions, with some noting disappointment at the early ending and others saying they understood given the circumstances.


Before the concert, Richie had posted images from rehearsals and soundcheck on Instagram, marking the opening night of the tour in St Paul.


Earth, Wind & Fire drummer John Paris later told the Minnesota Star Tribune that Richie had appeared in normal condition before the show and mentioned only that he was slightly dehydrated.
