Korn Guitarist Safe At Home

Korn fans can rest easy knowing that James "Munky" Schaffer, the band's guitarist, is at home recovering from his recent scare with viral meningitis.| Schaffer was admitted to the hospital under close watch three weeks ago when doctors discovered that he had the virus. The band subsequently pulled out of their main stage slot on this summer's Lollapalooza, saying that it wouldn't be fair to the fans if Munky didn't play.

The other members of Korn are currently working on their third album, which follows their multiplatinum second release, Life Is Peachy. Schaffer will join the rest of the band once he is healthy enough, which should be in about two weeks, according to his doctors. (AB)
