W.A.S.P. had to abort their concert in Karlskrona, Sweden on Saturday, April 28th, after 50 minutes when frontman Blackie Lawless had pain in his chest.
According to HardRickInfo, the band came back on stage after about 10 minutes and did a final song, 'Blind In Texas', but after that Blackie was immediately taken to the hospital. He was released from the hospital after a few hours of observation and stood on stage in Lund, Sweden the following day.
