Perry, who had joined Joel on stage, had been rushed to the hospital following the Madison Square Garden performance after he reportedly started gasping for air in his dressing room.

He had to be carted away on a stretcher and paramedics inserted a tracheal tube down his throat to help him breathe.

But with his health improving, Perry plans to join Aerosmith for their Las Vegas residency, which is set to start in April of next year.
