Keith Morris Recovering From Coma

Punk icon Keith Morris is recovering after falling into a diabetes-related coma.

The one-time Black Flag frontman missed a lunch after returning home to America from Australia's Big Day Out festival last month (Jan13) - and didn't wake from an afternoon nap.

He tells RollingStone.com, "My band, Off!, were on the Big Day Out... I got back last Tuesday and I'm a diabetic and I failed to eat lunch. Came back, hung out with my girlfriend, and the whole idea was that we were going to do what grown-ups do - go take a nap and go get something to eat. _I_t should have been reversed - I should have eaten first.

"We did what we did and I passed out... I actually blacked out and went into a diabetic-induced coma. So I'm kind of (feeling) like the T-shirt that's been sitting in the dryer for three days."

Morris will be hoping to keep his blood levels balanced when he heads out on the road this spring (13) with his former Black Flag bandmates, who have reunited as Flag.
