Ex-Black Sabbath drummer Bill Ward recently started a new band called Day Of Errors and planned on doing a bit of touring in early December. Unfortunately, the tour has been canceled due to Ward landing himself in the hospital over heart issues. According to a statement by Ward, it's a heart issue he's never experienced before, "and due to its nature, I had to make the decision to cancel the dates."
Ward assures fans he's in good health and is in recovery, though I think I speak for everyone when I say we're still worried about the guy. Get well soon, Bill!
Hi Everyone,
It’s with great, great sadness that I must tell you I have to cancel the Day Of Errors tour dates scheduled in December. I wound up in hospital this past weekend with heart problems. I am OK and in good recovery at this time. However, I’ve never experienced this particular type of heart problem before, and due to its nature, I had to make the decision to cancel the dates.
I want to send my sincere apologies to everyone who was planning to come out to the shows. I’m so sorry we won’t be making it – I was looking forward to seeing you all and sharing this music with you. I’ll be in touch soon.
All my love,
Bill
