Korn cancels tour over clotting fear

Korn has cancelled the rest of the international leg of its tour after singer Jonathan Davis was hospitalised with a blood disorder.

On the Korn website Davis said he was diagnosed last weekend with an infection that prevents blood from clotting, brought on by an allergic reaction to medication.

"If I continued to headbang on stage, I could have had a brain haemorrhage and dropped dead on the spot."
