Moderators isaac42 Posted August 31, 2007 Moderators Share Posted August 31, 2007 LONDON (Aug. 31) - British rock band Supergrass has canceled a homecoming gig in Oxford, England, after its bass player broke his back while sleepwalking . Mick Quinn fell from a first floor window at a villa in the south of France, a representative for the band said Friday. Surgeons at a specialist spinal unit in Toulouse have repaired two broken vertebrae, and are caring for Quinn's damaged heel. http://news.aol.com/entertainment/story/_a/supergrass-mick-quinn/20070831150509990001?ncid=NWS00010000000001#cmntbgn Keep in mind that, in Europe, "first floor" often means the first floor above the ground floor.

Members BEAD Posted August 31, 2007 Members Share Posted August 31, 2007 I don't think I could hurt myself sleepwalking here unless I walked outside and laid down in the street. That would really suck though... waking up with a broken back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Crescent Seven Posted August 31, 2007 Members Share Posted August 31, 2007 Don't you still need surgery for that? That has to suck. Yup. I had surgery scheduled in December. Got laid off November 1st. It's going to be another 3 years before I can get it done at this point... C7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like in the cartoons He probably walked off a balcony, then woke up and looked down, causing gravity to take effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
