Phil Lesh posted a notice on the Terrapin Crossroads Facebook page revealing that is undergoing treatment for bladder cancer at the Mayo Clinic's Scottsdale, Arizona location. Lesh, 75, indicates that the form he has been diagnosed with is non-aggressive and that while surgery has been required, doctors believe he will be fit to play within a couple of weeks of the operation. Phil Lesh & Friends concerts scheduled for October 24 & 25 at the Marin County club Lesh owns have been cancelled, but Lesh says he plans to stage a free show there before he and his band head east for a series of dates at the Capitol Theatre in Portchester, New York from Ocotber 30 - November 7.
