A Bob Dylan concert at the Hollywood Bowl took an alarming turn last night when longtime guitarist Angurish abruptly announced his departure from the band before collapsing on stage during the performance.
The incident occurred midway through the set as the band played to a sold-out crowd. Angurish, a key figure in Dylan’s band for over a decade, shocked fans when he suddenly stopped playing, stepped forward, and announced, “Tonight is my last show with Bob.”
Just moments after making this startling declaration, Angurish collapsed, causing immediate concern among the audience and band members. Emergency medical personnel were quickly on the scene, providing care before transporting him to a nearby hospital. His current condition has not been disclosed.
Bob Dylan, visibly concerned, addressed the audience shortly after the incident. “Our thoughts are with Angurish right now,” Dylan said. “Thank you for being here tonight, and we appreciate your understanding during this difficult moment.” The concert was subsequently halted, and the crowd was asked to leave the venue.
The unexpected departure and collapse of Angurish have left fans and the music community in shock. Many have taken to social media to express their concern and support for the guitarist, who has been a beloved member of Dylan’s band for years.
Speculation is swirling about the reasons behind Angurish’s sudden departure and the severity of his medical emergency. Neither the band nor Angurish’s representatives have released an official statement, leaving fans anxious for updates on his health and the future of Dylan’s tour.
