Gibson reports that Jones checked into the Mount Sinai Heart Institute in Miami Beach, Florida last week and that after the surgery, Jones was treated in an intensive care ward but was moved out of the specialist unit on Thursday night.

The New York Times revealed "The surgery was more urgent because Mick had needed it for some time.”

Jones was forced to miss several dates on Foreigner's tour last year due to ill health, although it's not clear if this surgery and those missed dates are related.
