Scorpions lead singer undergoes complex spine surgery

Spine

Klaus Meine, frontman for the band the Scorpions, has undergone complex spine surgery, according to a March 8 report from LoudWire.

The band has bowed out of an upcoming festival appearance as Mr. Meine recovers, according to the report. 

"The reason we have had to cancel is because I recently underwent a complex spine surgery, and my doctors expected me to be better and back on my feet in time for the show. I am making good progress with my rehab, but unfortunately, I have not recovered as expected and after talking with my medical team, I am advised that a 12-hour flight time and performing at 2,000 meters altitude is a tough one for anybody," Mr. Meine wrote in a statement. 

The report did not detail who performed the procedure.
