Weezer Crash Update!

Ouch!

We reported earlier today that Weezer's tour bus was in a crash due to slipping on an ice patch early Sunday morning.

Frontman Rivers Cuomo was taken to the hospital and new information has been released that the singer has cracked three of his ribs!

His assistant Sarah has fractured two ribs and a lower vertebrae. No one else was harmed in the accident, including Cuomo's family.

Consequently the rest of the band's December dates have been canceled while Rivers recuperates!

Get well soon!

Let's hope he heals quickly…I was in a wreck 4 years ago and broke 2 vertebrae, and just had a spinal fusion due to it… Hope he's better in time for the Holidays/festivities!!! Best of luck!!

So glad their injuries weren't worse. Love Weezer.
Over the weekend, road conditions were terrible in the East due to snow and freezing rain
