He <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theprp.com\/\">previously revealed he was set to undergo surgery later in September for the condition<\/a> but has now been advised not to perform live at all until after undergoing surgery and recovering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">In a statement issued on August 31st, he offered:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">\u201cAs previously announced, I was scheduled to have surgery following our last show at \u2018<strong>Blue Ridge Rock Festival<\/strong>\u2018. My condition has worsened and my physician has advised me against performing again prior to surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">I was previously involved in a car accident and broke the middle finger on my left hand. I now suffer from trigger finger, a condition that causes my finger to lock. I received a series of cortisone shots to alleviate the problem, however, the cure rate is about 70%. Unfortunately, that procedure did not work in my case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">I am devastated that my finger has been very stiff and painful. We have been performing at our very best and the support of all those who have paid tribute to <strong>Vinnie Paul<\/strong> has really helped us recover from our loss. We will reschedule the headline shows. I\u2019m really sorry we could not perform for you this time\u2026 But we will see you soon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">\u2013 <strong>Maxwell<\/strong>\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">The cancelled dates include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">09\/06 Jacksonville, NC \u2013 The Tarheel<br \/>\n09\/07 Greenville, SC \u2013 The Firmament<br \/>\n09\/08 Concord, VA \u2013 Blue Ridge Rock Festival<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">The band\u2019s new album \u201c<strong>Welcome Home<\/strong>\u201d is headed for a September 27th release date.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HELLYEAH guitarist Tom Maxwell has issued a statement regarding the band being forced to cancel&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-76483","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76483","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=76483"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76483\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":76485,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76483\/revisions\/76485"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=76483"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=76483"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=76483"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
