Alex gives the update on George

Hey everyone, we just wanted to update you guys on the situation with George. He has an inflamed lung that has been making breathing very difficult and painful for him. He had to miss the Pittsburgh show because of this. We want to say thanks to Maurizio from Kataklysm for singing "Stripped, Raped and Strangled" with us, and also say thanks to the Pittsburgh fans who contributed some growling throughout the show. We thought we might have a similar situation at the next show in Philadelphia, but George was able to perform despite his illness. He is still having some breathing difficulty, but he is improving. He also thinks he'll be able to finish the remaining shows without any problems, as the medicine the doctors perscribed for him is reducing the inflammation. Anyway, this is not a permanent problem, just a passing illness. George should be just fine soon. George and the rest of us want to say a big thank you to all of the fans who have expressed concern and support on this matter, it means a lot to us.

Hey guys, sorry to hear about what happened to George, best of luck to you guys with the tours. Ever since I was 10 I started listing to Cannibal Corpse and I don’t think it would be the same without Georges screams from hell! Ha-ha. I wanted to thank you guys because if I hadn’t listened to your brutal skull smashing music, I wouldn’t be a Death Metal vocalist as I am today, anyway best of luck to George and the rest, I hope to see you guys down in Toronto soon! \m/L8er\m/

George is a crap with no talent. And your band sucks without Chris.

Corpsegrinder glad to hear your getting better man. I just blew about $60 on a tick to see you July 11th in Toronto. And it'd barely be worth it if Goegre wouldn't support the rest of CC with his powerful fuckin' growls. And thanks for the news too Adam.

And A funny story to you all aswell.. Today I brought 'Hammer Smashed Face' lyrics to my school and my teacher confinscated it.. Then READ IT out for the whole class. She turned green and had to leave the classroom before "Crushing, Cranial, Contents." I got 3 detentions but what the fuck! It's for a good cause ain't it? FUCK YEAH CANNIBAL CORPSE!!!!!!!!
