Jello Biafra, original vocalist of Dead Kennedys, suffered a hemorrhagic stroke on Saturday, March 7.
In a prepared statement from Biafra, issued via Alternative Tentacles, Biafra says:
I hopped out of my bed because I needed to pee, and my left leg just collapsed under me and I fell to the floor. I couldn’t even break the fall with my left arm because it wasn’t working either. I tried to hop back up again, and I couldn’t. I realized I had “fallen and I can’t get up!”
It was this point I thought, “Oh shit, I’m having a stroke!”
I still have a lot of great stuff in me, but right now I gotta lotta rehabbing to do.
Biafra is currently in stable condition, with all future public appearances delayed.
