Foo Fighters guitarist Pat Smear will be sitting out the band’s upcoming live shows after “smashing the shit out of his left foot.” During his absence, Jason Falkner will be filling in.

The band issued the following statement:
” BREAKING NEWS!
In the classic tradition of rockstars having bizarre gardening accidents, Pat Smear has apparently rung in the new year by smashing the shit out of his left foot.
This means he’ll unfortunately be missing a few shows while the multiple broken bones in his foot heal. We’ll miss our beloved Pat as much as you will, but we want him fully healed and back on his feet as soon as possible.
Beck and St. Vincent guitar wizard Jason Falkner will be filling in for Pat while he’s on the mend.”
