Booze clouds singer’s memory of beating

Pop star Gavin DeGraw was so drunk when he was beaten up in the East Village that he can barely remember the attack, law-enforcement sources said yesterday.

DeGraw posted on his Twitter page yesterday, “Honestly, I don’t remember much. I only know I can recover from here.”

The thugs who jumped DeGraw at 4 a.m. Monday apparently had no clue he was a multiplatinum singer, and never attempted to rob him, the sources said.

DeGraw, 34, told cops he has foggy memories of at least two men jumping him at First Avenue and East Sixth Street after leaving National Underground, the East Houston Street bar he co-owns with his brother.

Beaten and bloodied, DeGraw stumbled in the direction of Beth Israel Hospital — on First and 16th — but got disoriented and fell on top of a stopped taxi at Third and 19th. The cab sped away before an onlooker called 911.

DeGraw’s brother, Joseph, insisted last night that Gavin “had nothing but cranberry juice to drink,” and his Twitter message referred to his concussion.

The singer, whose weekend gigs on Long Island and Massachusetts have been canceled, was moved from Bellevue to NYU Hospital last night for surgery on his broken nose.
