Rivers Cuomo Still In The Hospital

Filed under: Music Minute

Weezer lead singer Rivers Cuomo is still in the hospital after their tour bus crashed off the highway when hitting a patch of ice. His injuries included a punctured lung and damage to his spleen!

According to Weezer's website, Cuomo "went from being barely able to talk and open his eyes yesterday to partially sitting up, talking clearly, reading books and checking the internet."

His blood pressure is now stable, his spleen is "no longer leaking" and his lung is healing as well.

If he is able to stand up he could be leaving the hospital "pretty soon."

Ouch!

Feel better soon, Rivers!

      When I read your headline I immediately thought it was more than the ribs and my mind went to a pneumothorax (fancy name for a punctured lung) which can require the placement of a pretty painful temporary tube. Get Well Rivers
