Metal SLudge — The band KIX and their camp have sent Metal Sludge an official statement regarding the condition of drummer Jimmy Chalfant.
Metal Sludge broke the story late last night after Chalfant fell unconscious on stage during the band’s performance at the Tally Ho Theatre in Leesburg Virginia.
Read the band’s official statement below in full.
————————-
KIX drummer Jimmy Chalfant is awake, alert, resting comfortably and in good spirits in the hospital after collapsing towards the end of their performance at the Tally-Ho Theater in Leesburg, Virginia on night one of a two nights stint. While clearly a cardiac event, it is unknown at this time whether or not Jimmy actually suffered a heart attack. Jimmy will be undergoing a series of tests to determine exactly what in fact occurred. The second performance scheduled for this evening (Saturday Nov 19th) is understandably postponed with a makeup date pending the prognosis of Jimmy’s condition. KIX appreciates the outpouring of love and concern for Jimmy and thank everyone for their courteous understanding in the matter.
– KIX
