Bill Ward Suffers Mild Heart Attack

Posted on May.22, 1998 under Bill Ward

This past week, during rehearsals for the Black Sabbath tour of Europe, Bill Ward started experiencing pain in his chest. He was taken to the hospital, and it was discovered he had had a mild heart attack. Currently, he is resting, and is doing well. Bill has been told to not fly for 6 weeks, and of course, he can’t tour with Black Sabbath this spring in Europe.

To this, Vinny Appice has been brought in at the last second to rehearse with the band and will take Bill’s slot for the European tour. Bill hopes to be back behind the kit for the US dates later this year.
