Cave-In Frontman Dinged Up In Road Accident
My bros like to scorn longboard riders, all like “Get a real skateboard u pussy” and I’m more like, Whoa brah that’s the same non-logic wielded on us by older douchelords when we started skating a million years ago. (To get the picture, just swap out “real skateboard” for “football/girlfriend.”) I’m like, Just leave the dorks alone, they’re just partying. Who cares.
But fuck that, I’m having a change of heart cuz it seems that this week one such longboarder kinda caused a scary accident involving Cave-In frontman Stephen Brodsky. He’s fine so no big deal, you say? Well, look, sorry if I sound hysterical here but that dude is one of those irreplaceable composers, riffists, and sweet sweet voices. Not replaceable! No replacement exists! Anyway:
First major bike wreck. Thankfully no broken bones. Now bring on the painkillers. http://t.co/ByvpbAjA6T

@rileybreck Road wreck. Flipped over some amateur longboarder who tripped right in front of me. #busted

I would never deny Brodsky his right to a full, rich life on account of our need for continued output of his singularly genius music and stuff. But from the opposite angle, we can see that it’s insane to entrust the fate of Brodsky’s guitar arms, songwriting brain, and hunky face to the randomness of street traffic. So I suggest one of those “crowdfunding” campaigns to encase the author of this mega-jam and this odyssey in a semi-permeable plexi-bubble. Maybe we can borrow the down payment from Protest The Hero lol.
