Danananananaykroyd man breaks arm
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 31 July 2009
Dananananaykroyd have been forced to cancel the last two dates on their Australian tour after drummer John Baillie Jr broke his arm on stage in Sydney on Wednesday. While jumping off stage to greet the crowd, he managed to snap one of the bones in his forearm and break a piece of bone off his elbow and is now receiving treatment in hospital in the city.
The band’s Calum Gunn told CMU: “The details still aren’t really very clear. I think he just kind of came off the stage a bit funny and has done something pretty bad to his arm. The latest I’ve heard is that he’s taken a bit of his elbow bone off. We couldn’t really go on without John and so we stopped the show and got him medical attention as soon as possible. There was a doctor in the audience which was really cool. Kind of clichéd ‘is there a doctor here?’ thing actually worked. She looked after John for a while until the ambulance arrived”.
