Tom Keifer - Hospitalised With Heat Exhaustion And Dehydration
Tom Keifer was forced to cancel his concert Saturday night (October 14th) due to a medical emergency. The Cinderella frontman was scheduled to perform at Jergel's in Warrendale, Pennsylvania when he was taken ill with heat exhaustion and severe dehydration before the show. If all goes well, Tom Keifer is expected to be released from hospital later today.
Official statement released: "Tom Keifer was, regretfully, forced to postpone his performance in Warrendale, PA last night following his collapse prior to the show. Tom Keifer was transported to a local hospital where he underwent tests and was kept overnight. Doctors confirm that Keifer is in stable condition and believe the episode points to heat exhaustion and severe dehydration. Keifer was given fluids, is resting comfortably, and is expected to be released later today. He plans to return to his performance schedule later in the week."
Tom Keifer is on the road promoting an expanded compilation of his acclaimed solo debut album, The Way Life Goes, which will be made available on October 20th via Cleopatra Records. It also has two brand new studio tracks recorded in Nashville by three-time Grammy Award winner Vance Powell (Jack White, Chris Stapleton) with Keifer and his bandmates (Tony Higbee, Billy Mercer, Paul Simmons, Paul Taylor, Savannah Keifer and Kendra Chantelle). Although Cinderella hasn't released a new studio album since 1994's Still Climbing, the band started playing sporadic shows again in 2010 but has been largely inactive for the last few years while Keifer focuses on his solo career.
