Remember how earlier this year, Coal Chamber had to cancel a buncha shows because of frontman Dez Fafara‘s sudden health concerns? It was a major bummer and a scary situation for those close to the vocalist. However, in a new social media update posted earlier today, Fafara assured his fans that he was not only on the mend, but that new music was still coming.
You may recall that Coal Chamber pushed their “Fiend For The Fans” tour to next year. Or maybe you remember their Aftershock appearance was canceled because of his health problems. Though he’s not completely out of the woods just yet, he said he felt the need to let people know he’s largely okay.
“HEALTH UPDATE After pulling my tour due to vertigo and now with months of doctors HERES AN update.
“FIRST. Thank you for the outpouring of love and to every musician or crew member AND all my FRIENDs that checked on me I really appreciate you.
“I as you know suffered a blackout and vertigo weeks before tour and I’ve now seen several doctors several times and as they dial in the diagnosis and treatment I wanted to let you guys all know it’s nothing that’s gonna KILL ME since I’ve had every cat scan and test run you possibly can do Thankfully. That being said I’m under doctors supervision in fact writing to you now fresh out of the ear nose throat doc and thought I should check in ….
“Sorry for the silence but I’ve been really focusing on family and health at the moment. PLEASE FOLLOW @devildriver and @coalchamberofficial as announcements are coming I’m looking forward to hitting the road hard with both bands next year as well as New music is coming ! ..please like and comment so I can get back in your algorithm. Have a Happy Halloween. For more personal looks into the Fafara Family follow my wife and mgmt @mrsfafara. Sincerely DEZ”.
It’s good to hear Fafara’s likely going to be alright. Passing out suddenly isn’t a laughing matter and could mean all sorts of really bad shit is happening so it’s good he and his doctors are taking this seriously. Here’s hoping he’ll be able to get back up on the stage sooner than later.
