Scorpions drummer Mikkey Dee recovering from Sepsis surgery

Scorpions drummer Mikkey Dee has revealed that he is currently recovering from surgery for Sepsis.

“Just a quick statement about what has been happening to me these past three weeks,” began Dee on social media. “First I like to thank everyone for these heartwarming Christmas and New Years greetings, that I have not been able to respond to. I always try to do that every year.

"This holiday season, I have been hospitalized with a very serious blood infection (Sepsis). I was admitted for three weeks but now I am home fighting this bastard bacteria. Thankfully, I have received fantastic care at the Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Gothenburg, my hometown. So thanks a million to all the Doctors and Nurses that have been giving me the most excellent care.

“After several operations, I am now back home and the numbers are all going in the right direction,”
added the rocker. “Still lots of recovery and rehab in front of me. Now I’m working a 100% to be back on the drum stool for the Residency that starts off in Las Vegas on February 27. We have a tremendous 2025 to look forward to, celebrating 60 years of Scorpions and many exciting gigs around the world.

“So, the Stinger is out and I can’t wait to see you all out there on the road and rock the hell out of you! I wish everybody a fantastic 2025 with good health and lots of Rock n’ Roll!”


“Scorpions – Coming Home to Las Vegas” 60th Anniversary Las Vegas Residency will kick off next month at PH Live at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino, where they will be joined by guests Buckcherry.
