Due to health issues Team Spider's 80 year old vocalist Zak was forced to spend the Thanksgiving weekend in the hospital. On November 20th the NYC based poet / songwriter underwent minor surgery to rewire his pacemaker at St Luke's Hospital. He was discharged the next day but less than 24 hours later fell and wasn't able to get up. Zak managed to call 911 and has been hospitalized since for observation.

This isn't the first recent health scare for the Team Spider member, as this past Halloween Zak took an "unexpected stage dive" when playing an outdoor concert in front of New York City's City Hall. Well wishers can leave Zak a message in the band's forum.
