Gary ‘Angry’ Anderson of Rose Tattoo suffers cardiac arrest
Rose Tattoo frontman Gary ‘Angry’ Anderson has suffered a cardiac arrest and is currently hospitalized receiving treatment. The 79-year-old musician, a prominent figure in Australian rock, is under medical care following the health emergency.
The news follows the band’s decision earlier this month to cancel the remaining dates of their ‘One Last Ride’ European tour due to a previously undisclosed medical issue. The tour, which began in July, had nine shows remaining at the time of its cancellation.
Rose Tattoo is currently scheduled to return to Australia in September for a series of farewell performances in Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Adelaide, and Brisbane. The band has requested privacy for Anderson and his family during his recovery.
