Ignite and Pennywise frontman, Zoli Teglas was rushed to the hospital on the weekend after collapsing on stage during Pennywise’s appearance at With Full Force Festival in Leipzig, Germany. As a result of ongoing back problems, Teglas was advised to have immediate surgery or risk possible paralysis. Pennywise have announced the cancellation of two European shows, but not the entirety of their current European tour. No word on their upcoming Australian tour either.
Here's the word from the Wise..
"Zoli was having back-pain through out the tour and at full force festival during the set he collapsed on stage a few times was taken to the emergency room where they said he needed immediate operation or risk the chance of paralysis.Needless to say we will have to cancel Hengelo and Schweinfurt and hope for a quick recovery. We are very sorry we are forced to cancel these shows but Zolis health is our main focus right now."
