Earlier this week Five Finger Death Punch announced that its show in Duluth was postponed due to a medical emergency concerning Jason Hook.
The band has since provided a statement on this confirming that Jason has undergone gall bladder surgery and announced that the remaining three shows in its current US Tour have been postponed.
The official statement from the band is as follows
Last night, Jason Hook was taken to the emergency room where it was determined his gallbladder needed to be removed.
Jason underwent surgery successfully but will have to remain in the hospital until his doctors determine he is fit to be discharged and travel home.
Jason’s healing is our #1 priority. As a result, the last three shows of this current tour will be postponed, however, we are working on coming back to play Duluth, Omaha and Des Moines very soon.
Once we have an update on new dates to return, we will post the information on our website and social media channels.
Please hold on to your tickets in the meantime. Jason very much appreciates all the well wishes and, rest assured, we will see you back out on the road very soon!
