Machine Head's Robb Flynn Releases Surgery Video Diary

Flynn broke the news to fans that he was undergoing surgery and the band was forced to pull out of dates with Dethklok, All That Remains and Black Dahlia Murder.

The posting earlier this week said, "Flynn had planned to go under the knife in January after completing the tour as he has been playing through the pain of a double inguinal hernia since the tour started in October. He had hoped to continue the tour despite extreme discomfort, but it's become too difficult to continue on. Flynn will undergo surgery tomorrow, Wednesday, November 14 in Minneapolis before returning home to California to recover, rest and recuperate. Machine Head will rejoin the tour in Portland, OR."
