Ludicra's Decancellation tour is in danger :(.

John Cobbett, one of their guitarists, had to be rushed to a hospital in Olympia, WA on 4/3. His appendix burst and he currently has a 6" steel tube in his side.

Needless to say, the tour may not be happening.

To make matters worse, it's sounding like John doesn't have the health insurance to cover surgery, and being a metal musician doesn't exactly make a lot of cash.

Seriously, these guys just can't catch a break. :(

dude that sux0rz :(


EDIT: Giant Squid, Grayceon, Cormorant and La Fin du Monde should have a benefit show to raise funds for his surgery in Cleveland. I'd pay big money to go to that shit. :D

...and happiness will befall many a metalhead in Ohio.

Someone from Wolves in the Throne Room is setting up a PayPal account - they're going to be accepting donations for his medical bills. So right now that's a no go on that benefit concert, but you can help them out if you want / have the means.

Metalsucks picked up the story: http://www.metalsucks.net/2010/04/06/help-john-cobbett-from-ludicra-and-hammers-of-misfortune/

They announced that they're going to continue the tour minus John though.

Another example of why the health care system isn't working... not like this bill is gonna fix it.

How uncouth would it be for me to ask them to sign my own overdue medical bills as a souvenir? :D
