The Flaming Lips Member Hospitalized

Posted by Jon E. on April 28, 2010

The Palm Beach Post reports that the Flaming Lips have pulled out of their slot at the Florida festival SunFest. A statement from the festival's organizers says that the Lips, scheduled to perform tomorrow night, have canceled because Lips multi-instrumentalist Steven Drozd has been hospitalized. We haven't yet received any word on Drozd's condition. According to the band's reps, they may also have to postpone some other shows.

UPDATE: The Lips' appearance at the Memphis in May festival on May 1 has also been canceled.

 

 

According to the Sun-Sentinel, a local radio station DJ named Smitty will replace the Flaming Lips on Thursday's bill. Sorry, SunFest attendees. Thanks to Derek Hannan for the tip.
