Reports: Clemons suffers stroke

Clarence Clemons, saxophonist for Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band, has suffered a stroke, according to media reports.

Rolling Stone and Showbiz411.com reported last night that Clemons was ill after having the stroke at his home in Florida.

Clemons, known as "The Big Man," has undergone a series of surgeries and treatments in recent years for his knees and back. Discomfort from the ailments has led him to remain seated during portions of E Street Band concerts.
