Sum 41 has been going through a lot lately while on the road! Today’s post deals with lead singer Deryck Whibley “hospitalized with severe pneumonia”. And so close to the release of their new album, Screaming Bloody Murder. Bummer. The full statement posted on Sum 41’s official blog reads as follows:
“We regret to inform everyone that we have had to cancel a few shows due to Deryck Whibley being hospitalized with severe pneumonia. Deryck is currently being treated in a Sydney hospital. Doctors are doing their best to beat the pneumonia and Deryck will remain in Sydney until he has recovered. As soon as Deryck is out of the hospital the band will return back to the stage performing their ‘Screaming Bloody Murder’ world tour with the usual high energy kick ass shows.”
At least they are optimistic about it. Here’s hoping for a speedy recovery for Deryck.
Screaming Bloody Murder will hit stores March 29th. Until then, you can preview the title track and the song “Blood In My Eyes”.
