Head Automatica was forced to cancel a college show last Saturday night due to Daryl Palumbo’s Crohn’s disease according to this article.

Popular power-pop band Head Automatica was forced to cancel at the last minute due to lead singer Daryl Palumbo’s Crohn’s disease, which causes swelling in the the gastrointestinal tract. The band has had to cancel performances and even whole tours in the past because of his bouts with the chronic condition.

Though Head Automatica’s cancellation left many bummed, pop/punk band Sugarcult, which is touring in the area, agreed to fill in and play a last-minute show — after headliner Reel Big Fish.

“I was disappointed Head Automatica canceled but I’ve seen them before so I was excited to see Sugarcult for the first time,” Sanchez said. “I thought that it was going to be pretty horrible since they just played a huge show and were on the road for over two hours. But it turned out to be very entertaining and they kept the crowd going, even in the crappy weather.”

As of right now, there is no word if he is still ill.
