We love kicking back, having some brews and blasting Tankard. But some bad news for the German thrashers. Their drummer, Olaf Zissel, has checked into a hospital for what is believed to be a stroke. The band offered the following statement:
“We’re shocked and are keeping our fingers crossed for Olaf [so] that he will be released from the hospital soon. We [hope] that he will get well soon and fast. And we want to thank Gerd [Lücking of Holy Moses], who [agreed on] short [notice] to play these shows with us.”
Olaf is underground various testing, according to a press release.
Our best wishes to Zissel for a speedy recovery.
