Dan Fogelberg, known for hits such as “Leader of the Band,” “Run for the Roses” and “Same Old Lang Syne,” is undergoing experimental treatment for advanced prostate cancer.
Fogelberg, 53, was diagnosed with the cancer two months ago during a checkup to prepare for a tour of the East Coast and Florida, which he subsequently canceled. His mother, Margaret, said that the cancer has spread to his bones and that he is being treated at Harvard Medical School.
