Phil Lesh, miembro fundador de los californianos The Greatful Dead ha sido diagnosticado con cáncer de vejiga.

Lesh de 75 años, anuncio la malas nuevas a traves de su cuenta oficial de Facebook. Afortunadamente el pre-diagnostico es bueno. ‘Ninguno de los tumores es agresivo y no hay indicios de que se hayan expandido a otras partes del cuerpo’, explico Lesh.

Debido al tratamiento que tiene que seguir al pie de la letra, Lesh ha cancelado un par de shows programados en Terrapin Crossroads, el restaurante/foro para conciertos de su propiedad ubicados en San Rafael California.

La re-programación de los shows será anunciada prontamente.

Aquí el mensaje en su idioma original posteado en su pagina oficial de Facebook:

Dear Friends,

I am sorry to let you know that I will need to cancel the October 24th and 25th Phil & Friends shows with Chris Robinson.

I was diagnosed with bladder cancer in early October, and have spent the last few weeks at the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale doing tests and eventually surgery to remove the tumors. I am very fortunate to have the pathology reports show that the tumors are all non aggressive, and that there is no indication that they have spread.

So thanks to my local doctor Cliff Sewell, and the incredible team at the Mayo Clinic, all is well and I can return to normal activities in two weeks from my surgery. Unfortunately, that means I will have to cancel the PLF shows scheduled for Oct 24/25. We will reschedule these shows as soon as we can, but in the meantime, keep a lookout for a free Grate Room show before I leave for the East Coast shows. I also plan to pop in and jam in the bar before we leave, so I hope to see you there at Terrapin.

Love Will See You Through….
-Phil

P.S. Ticket refund info will be posted soon
