Well, it looks like there is some rest for the wicked.
Friday night about 8 pm UK time on our way to open up for the old
singer for the specials new band When a car pulled out in front or a
truck in front of us. Our Driver Ian swerved to miss certain death
and hit a patch of Black Ice going between 70 - 80 mph flipping the
bus several times. How we are all alive no one from the paramedics to
the coppers to ourselves have any idea.Willy B has suffered a broken
arm and a shattered ball joint bone (not the med name for sure) and
was held in hospital for three nights while they decided on surgery
or not. will was lucky not to have to have the operation. Our driver
Ian was not as lucky. He suffered a shattered collar bone. Broken
hands and fingers with all the tendons and flesh ripped off pretty
good from hands, shoulders and back. He also suffered massive head
injuries. We were lucky there was two army medics infront of us and
on the scene with lightning speed our Ian would not have stood a
chance. To put it as soft as I can. Half the skin on his head was
ripped off leaving his skull in clear site. Willy will be out of
commission for 7-10 weeks and Ian is expected to make a full
recovery. We just visited both and both are in good spirits. I can't
tell you how happy we are that these guys are ok. The rest of us
suffered some cuts and bruise and Billy Bones has had his jacket
ripped to shreds but thank god for a drum he was resting his pretty
little red head on or he would not be here as well. (He was sitting
right behind Ian.) As you can tell we are all still pretty shaken up
from all this. The Tour for the Independents is off for now but the
Dangerfields are back out kicking ass. I'd like to think everyone who
worked so hard on making this tour happen from the promoters to the
agents to the friends and family and fans who made it out and the
all the ones who still have their tickets. We will work all this out
as soon as possible and be back over here to show you why we are the
real rock n roll crazies of the world. Willy B wants all to know the
fourth Horsemen is going to make everything allllllllllll right!
whooooo!!!
