kevtamuk Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Bad news on their FB page - let's hope he makes a speedy recovery Mumford and Sons DALLAS, WOODLANDS & NEW ORLEANS SHOWS POSTPONED - STATEMENT FROM THE BAND To our fans - Our friend and bandmate Ted has been feeling unwell for a few days, and yesterday he was taken to a hospital to receive emergency treatment. The scans revealed a blood clot on the surface of his brain that requires an operation. Ted is receiving excellent care and we are being assured that he will recover quickly from surgery....

Wooderson Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Poor chap. Hope he recovers. Interesting if this impacts on their Glasters appearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wooderson Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Also - fascinating that the only post of merit regarding one of the headliners on the pre-eminent Glastonbury board 3 weeks out from the fest is about a bandmember having a blood clot and gigs being cancelled.

jeffie Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Backing vocals, banjo playing I think. Very hard for him to be replaced such short of notice. By the way guys, don't plan on mumford & sons cancelling because that will only mean one thing, they'l headline in 2014. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Verbal Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Are people's first thoughts about someone having a blood clot on the brain.. "Oooh exciting maybe they wont play?" I appreciate they arent popular on these boards, but thats pretty cold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russycarps Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 at the moment.... I guess they're going to wait for the results of the surgery before cancelling the rest of the tour, but this is brain surgery. I reckon if I had a clot that needed removing from the surface of my brain my doctor wouldn't have any hesitations signing me off for 3 weeks. Wouldn't surprise me if he's told not to fly for a while either. I don't think a glasto cancellation is off the cards at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorFiller Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 obviously it's too early for them to say they're gonna have to cancel the rest of their performances yet as they're probably all hoping for the best, but something as serious as this... unless they can do their shows without him, sounds cancel worthy to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
