Bill Nershi of The String Cheese Incident has confirmed that he is in good health and ready for this weekend's LOCKN Festival. Nershi was forced to miss Sunday's show at Oregon Eclipse Festival while battling a case of benign positional vertigo (BPV). The band's frontman took to his personal Facebook page on Tuesday afternoon to clear the air and express his excitement to return to Oak Ridge Farm for the SCI's rotating sets with Umphrey's McGee on Thursday night. See below for Nershi's official statement.

  • Hi everyone,
    Okay, here's the skinny. I had benign positional vertigo (BPV). Crystals in a cavity in my inner ear had dislodged themselves somehow, causing the sensation that things were moving when they weren't. I went to a hearing specialist that used a technique of having me lay back and move my head from side to side and use this vibrating thing against my head to get the crystals to gravitate back into the proper cavity. He said there is now absolutely no danger in flying. I am good to go!!!! See ya at Lockn' this weekend!

    Thanks everyone for your concern and good vibes,
    Billy
