Online is reporting that Bobby didn’t quite suffer the injuries that TMZ reported yesterday. According to Dennis McNally, the Dead’s long-time publicist, TMZ took his words out of context and that, yes, Bobby did have a cold but that last weekend’s benefit show was not postponed because of broken ribs.

I’m surprised that McNally even talked to TMZ in the first place but you can clearly see how what you say to an organization like that will get turned around to make a story much more than it really is.

TMZ and Contact Music are both reporting that Ratdog have postponed a ” post-tour fundraising show” but I can’t figure out what show that would be. There’s still a few days before the Obama benefit with his brothers in the Dead so I doubt that show would get postponed. Not in PA and not this late in the game. But you never know.

Here’s to hoping Bobby gets better soon!
