Rumors have been circulating the past day or so about the state of Flaming Lips guitarist Steven Drozd. It has finally been confirmed that he is in the hospital, and the Lips have cancelled a festival appearance. More details after the jump.

Details of Drozd's hospitalization are short, but what is known is that things were serious enough for The Flaming Lips to cancel today's gig at SunFest. The psychedelic group is also set for five dates in May, and as of now, all of these dates are still intact. According to a post on Brookyn Vegan, SunFest stated the following:

"Due to unforeseen circumstances SunFest is announcing a last minute schedule change. The Flaming Lips have withdrawn from the festival.

We regret any inconvenience that this may cause. The performance of any band is in the hands of the artists, not the festival. As a result, our longstanding policy is that the schedule is subject to change and no refunds will be given for festival tickets. Festival tickets are good for any one day of the five days. SunFest has been informed that the cancellation is due to the hospitalization of Steven Drozd and therefore extends wishes for a speedy recovery."

For those unfamiliar with SunFest, it is a five-day concert event that takes place in West Palm Beach, Florida. It kicked off last night with performances by Weezer and We Are Scientists, and will continue through the weekend. Get a full list of performers below.
