Telle Smith (The Word Alive) broke his back, and a rib during the band’s November 14 show in Pomona, CA. Despite this, the band will finish off the tour.
The band issued the following statement:
“WE WILL NOT BE MISSING ANY SHOWS DUE TO Telle Smith BREAKING RIBS AND HIS BACK…
He won’t be moving much though so if you can come out and go extra hard we would love that!!
We told you that if TWA ever has missed a show it was because we absolutely couldn’t play and this should prove that!”
