Styx drummer Todd Sucherman was hospitalized with food poisoning Friday night in Oregon, but the show in Grand Ronde, Oregon went on with the band's production manager and keyboard tech Jeff Heintz sitting in. Sucherman, who was back for Saturday's show in Auburn, Washington, says, "Jeff has always been an excellent drummer and he’s watched the show for nearly 20 years now from stage right.
Thanks to Jeff for saving the night, my bandmates and crew, and the audience who was understanding and still saw a great show." Styx are now off until April 11th in Biloxi, Mississippi.
