Clarence Clemons' Updates

Clarence Clemons, hospitalized in Florida after a stroke, has had two brain surgeries but is "responsive and in stable condition," according the authoritative Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band fan website, backstreets.com.

Also, Carolyn Gusoff of Fox 5 News has reported that Clemons is paralyzed on the left side of his body.


It was first reported last night on the showbiz411.com that the saxophonist had suffered a stroke at his Florida home and was seriously ill. That news has since been confirmed by several sources.

Showbiz411 added today that members of the E Street Band "were advised to get down to Florida as soon as possible."


Clemons is an original member of the E Street Band, and the oldest member of the band, at 69. He is someone whose importance to the New Jersey rock 'n' roll scene can't be overstated, and who is utterly irreplaceable.
