Cage the Elephant: Ax European Tour for Guitarist’s Leg Injury

Cage the Elephant have canceled the rest of their European tour after guitarist Nick Bockrath severely injured his leg.

The band says Bockrath “had an accident on stage at the LandgraafNetherlands Pinkpop Festival [last Saturday] and injured his leg badly (ruptured PCL, torn ACL, fractured tibia, damaged meniscus). He tried to play through two shows, but he now requires immediate surgery and is currently getting the medical attention he needs.”

There’s no word on how the injury might impact Cage’s North American tour with Beck and Spoon, which is slated to start July 11th.
