John Oates of the hitmaking 80’s group Hall and Oates had a bit of a scare recently.

The “Private Eyes” singer said he felt pain under his right rib, then shortly found out he had to have an emergency gall bladder surgery.

Last week I felt pain under my right rib and had to go in for emergency gallbladder surgery. Talk about frightening! I want to sincerely thank Vanderbilt’s Emergency Trauma and Surgical Critical Care Team who took me in the middle of the night… So many of you and cannot remember all names- I apologize. Aimee for insisting we go to hospital and all your care and love. Pommier’s for driving 7 hrs straight to see me. Now 6 days later getting ready to start the first show on H&O tour in Hershey tonight and Madison Square Garden on Friday. Without your unbelievable expertise- my recovery would not be what it is today- I am truly grateful! #vanderbilthospital

We’re happy to see that John is recovering and ready to get back on the stage — but take it easy, Mr. Oates.
