Diamond Head Cancel London Show After Drummer Falls Ill

The band still hope to play in York this evening

Published 4th Jul 2012

The band could not play at the Islington Academy last night after drummer, Karl Wilcox, was admitted to hospital with a suspected blood clot.

The metal legends issued an update on his condition later in the day, stating, "Karl has had hospital treatment today and should be fit again by tomorrow morning. We hope to go ahead with the York show tomorrow, but please check with the venue before setting out. The show on Thursday 5th July at Wolverhampton, and the remainder of the tour will go ahead as planned."

If you're heading to any of the band's dates in the next few days it will be worth checking with the venue that the gig is still going ahead.
