Nathan is being treated for broken ribs, but is doing well. The band will postpone the show that was planned for TONIGHT, August 10th, until further notice. Refunds for ticket holders will be available at point of purchase.”
Followill thanked his fans for their concern and love after the announcement via Twitter: “Thank you for all of the get well soons. I’m a little banged up but will be back better than ever.”
Brother and bandmate Jared also shared his feelings on Twitter, saying: “So sad this a.m.. Bus accident last night. Nathan has broken ribs. This was the most fun tour in a while. We’ll be back ASAP. #GetWellNate.”
