Children Of Bodom End Tour Early

2009-06-02 by CrazyFool84 | 33 Comments
Children Of Bodom frontman Alexi Laiho is somewhat human after all. He's been forced to cancel the band's remaining dates with Lamb of God, as the injury has apparently become too serious to continue playing.

"After the New York show (May 9) I knew it was going to be over," commented Laiho in an official statement. "During the 3rd song I started feeling like someone was stabbing me in my lungs, my heart and my ribs. That was the kind of pain that stubbornness, painkillers, nor alcohol could alleviate. I wanted to try to keep going but after seeing a second doctor in Philadelphia, I was basically told that I could f*ck myself up for life if I didn’t stop playing.

"Against all recommendation, I have played and sang for the last 10 days in violent pain which has only made my condition worsen. So, I decided to listen to everyone around me, who was telling me the best thing to do would be to go home and get some proper rest and give my shoulder some time to heal."

He's still gonna be shredding when he's 80, in a wheel chair with one arm, and still attempting to scream/sing.

He's not gonna live that long. My estimate is that he's got another 7 years (triple that if he decides to clean up)

New CoB ain't great to say the least, but you gotta love Alexi for this. Unless you're one of his doctors, I suppose.

Anything that reduces the amount of times CoB's music is heard is a win in my books.
