Overview
Bruce Springsteen sax player Clarence Clemons is reported as 'responsive and in a stable condition' after undergoing brain surgery after suffering a stroke on the weekend in Florida.
Springsteen fan site backstreets.com reports 'He's responsive. His eyes are welling up when we're talking to him. He was paralysed on his left side, but now he's squeezing with his left hand'.
Clemons had a massive stoke and had two brain surgeries yesterday in a Florida hospital.
At 69-years of age, Clemons is the oldest member of the E Street Band. He is an original member with Springsteen. They formed the group in 1972.
In recent years Clarence had both spinal and knee surgeries.
The E Street Band were in hiatus this year but Springsteen has expressed a desire to have them back on the road in 2012.
