The band was scheduled to play a headlining set at tonight’s KROQ Weenie Roast in Los Angeles, but were forced to cancel the show after Kiedis was transported from the venue in an ambulance after developing intense pains in his stomach. Weezer filled in for the group, extending their originally planned set.
