Barry Manilow Abruptly Ends Concert After Two Songs
13 Oct
Summary
- Manilow cut his concert short after only two songs.
- He cited bronchitis as the reason for canceling shows.
- The singer previously underwent surgery for lung cancer.

Barry Manilow's recent return to the stage was unexpectedly cut short when he abruptly ended a concert after only two songs on Friday. Audience members reported that the 83-year-old singer walked off stage, and the show was subsequently canceled. His representatives confirmed that Manilow was diagnosed with bronchitis, leading to the cancellation of his Friday and Saturday performances.
This health setback occurred just a day after Manilow had celebrated his return following a six-week hiatus. He had expressed enthusiasm on stage, joking about his energy. However, the bronchitis diagnosis interrupted his comeback. Last year, Manilow revealed a previous battle with lung cancer that required surgery and a lengthy recovery, during which he struggled with breathlessness and regaining his vocal strength.
