According to Loudwire, Nonpoint had to end their performance on Sunday after drummer Robb Rivera was compelled to leave the stage and was subsequently taken to the hospital.
The band later released a statement outlining the incident.
The Instagram post said, “Thank you to the Louisville fans for understanding that we have to cut the set tonight.”Robb was taken to the hospital when his heart rate suddenly increased dangerously high and the paramedics were unable to lower it in time. His heart rate is steady right now, and tests are being conducted. As more information becomes available, we’ll update everyone on his progress. To help us get our brother back on the drum throne, send them healing vibes. #prayersup.
The band was playing at Louisville, Kentucky’s Mercury Ballroom, according to Loudwire. According to reports, Rivera got up during the performance and then walked off the stage. After a delay, the band returned to the stage, but they shortened their performance to allow Ribera to visit the hospital.
