On April 23, 2007, Weber suffered a [[stroke]] while on tour with the [[Jan Garbarek]] Group of which he had been a part of for 25 years. Weber stated that he had felt "something indefinable going on". Weber called his manager and paramedics to examine him in his hotel room and they found nothing of significance to be wrong. Weber continued on to his soundcheck and cites "unusual intonation problems". This led Weber to go to the hospital to be examined again. Weber recounts his experience in his autobiography, saying that the hospital lost power multiple times during his stay, and that he was unable to get an MRI until the following day due to safety concerns caused by the unstable power. The MRI revealed that he had suffered a stroke.

Weber writes about his experience immediately following his stroke, recounting his physical therapy and saying that he thought he would be healthy and able to play again for the upcoming leg of the tour. However this was not the case and Weber has not been able to play the bass since. He was replaced in the Jan Garbarek Group by [[Yuli Daniel (musician)|Yuri Daniel]] in early 2007.
