Longtime E Street Musician Has Melanoma
NEWARK, N.J. (AP) - An original member of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band has melanoma and is taking a leave from the singer's "Magic" tour to undergo treatment.
Danny Federici is "one of the pillars of our sound," Springsteen said in a statement Wednesday.
Charles Giordano, who played with Springsteen last year on the "Seeger Sessions Tour," will fill in for Federici.
Fans at Monday's show in Boston had already heard rumors of Federici's illness and chanted his name as he and other band members took their bows, The Star-Ledger of Newark reported.
( I hope he will be okay) I used to love listening to their bands for years)
