NEW YORK (AP) - Korn canceled the rest of the international leg of its tour because lead singer Jonathan Davis was hospitalized, suffering a blood disorder.

"The doctors have determined that this was an isolated incident and that after a few weeks my recovery will be complete. I will be ready to rock on the Family Values Tour this summer," the 35-year-old Davis, who was released from a London hospital after four days of treatment, said Tuesday.

On Korn's Web site Monday, Davis said he was diagnosed last weekend with an infection that prevents blood from clotting normally because of a low number of platelets, cells produced by bone marrow. It was brought on by an allergic reaction to medication, he said.

"I started getting these weird bruises all over my body about two weeks ago," Davis said.

He said he was perilously close to death: "If I continued to headbang on stage, I could have had a brain hemorrhage and dropped dead on the spot."

The overseas part of the tour was to end June 27 in Budapest.

The band is headlining the fourth edition of the Family Values Tour in support of their latest album, "See You On the Other Side." The 30-city North American leg is scheduled to start in Virginia Beach, Va., on July 27.

Korn won a Grammy in 2003 for best metal performance for the song "Here to Stay" from their album "Untouchables."

Quote from the Download Festival website, "The average person has between 140 and 500. I had five...FIVE".


All the best to him.

Corey did an awesome job of filling in on two tracks at Download. People laugh and joke about Slipknot, but that guy has got lungs as big as my body and as versatile as my tongue like a racer and slick switch blade knife.

Get well soon Jonathan, im not a massive fan of Korn but what the band did, at Download was admirable and won me over respect wise.

Corey was the highlight though and Benji from Skindred was pretty sick on A.D.I.D.A.S

Corey Taylor is one hell of a singer now. I think he rocks, with or without mask.

That's for sure.

Corey Taylor is an amazing frontman.

I was quite suprised when i saw him live. Great performance, powerfull voice.
He was also joking - something was wrong with power, and he said people are trying to shut him down, because he was saying something against Bush. Then he asked the audience to sing "row, row, row your boat".
And of course, no one sang.  hihi
Then he said "I can't believe this. Are you people fucking drunk?!" rofl

And all the best to Jonathan - hope he recovers soon.
