As a guitar player I know how much it sucks when you're not able to play because of injury, as I'm sure it's 100 times worse when guitar playing is your job.

...that a li'l bit of alky-hol might have been involved? Most successful bands have sponsorships...this one needs AA sponsors.

I know how he feels as a guitarist myself, I recently sliced my thumb open real bad, I know it ain't no broken arm but it's impossible to hold a pick now

As soon as I read that article, that image immediately popped into my head. :D

thefadedline:

I've had some nasty hand injuries and also play guitar. I recommend the liquid stitches put out by Johnson and Johnson if you can get em, they are an over the counter product. I tore into my thumb so deep I could see bloodvessels, tissue and stuff. Bled like a bitch, too.

Worked like a charm and its waterproof. It won't alleviate the stinging, but it will keep the wound closed. A bit pricey, but if you are as clumsy as I am, its worth the dough.

Alexi Laiho is the singer, chances are he'll probably sing at show like james hetfield did on that tour when he was with a broken arm and john marshall played guitar.
