Former Eagles member Don Felder is on the mend after suffering an onstage medical episode during the Rock Legends Cruise last week.
On Tuesday (Feb. 18), Felder shared a Facebook video update with fans saying he’s feeling much better after a short stint in the ship’s medical facility.
“I just wanted to tell you all I am back 100 percent,” Felder says in the video. “I had a wonderful time down in the little medical facility getting an IV last night, and I feel fantastic. So I appreciate all your concern, but I am back and ready to rock.”
Fan-filmed video shows the moment during last Thursday (Feb. 13)’s set when Felder appeared unsteady as he approached the microphone during a performance of the Eagles’ 1973 song “Tequila Sunrise.”
Medical professionals quickly came to his aid and assisted Felder as he walked offstage.

Eagles founder Glenn Frey lived the good life. The legendary singer and guitarist and his wife lived in a 6-bedroom, 9-bathroom, 9,000-square-foot Spanish mansion in a very high-dollar area of Los Angeles, which sold for just under $15 million after Frey’s death in January of 2016.
