Asking Alexandria Bassist Involved in Moving Truck Accident

It isn’t in my nature, as a MetalSucks blogger, to write something good about Asking Alexandria. But at the end of the day, as much as I may hate the band’s music, I don’t wish any of the members physical harm.

So I’m glad to hear that bassist Sam Bettley walked away generally unscathed from a serious accident with a moving truck. Sam posted the following to Instagram:

Lucky to be alive. Tire blew out on me causing me to lose control and flip the truck. Everything I own has been destroyed but at least I walked away without a scratch. Grateful.

Yikes. Flipping a moving truck: something I never want to do.

Well, Sam, we’re glad you’re okay and hope any scratches or bruises you suffered heal quickly. Sorry about all your stuff. There, I’m being fair and tactful.

…HOPEFULLY YOUR BASSES WERE ALL DESTROYED AND YOU’LL HAVE TO STOP MAKING SUCH SHITTY MUSIC. Whew. Okay, sorry, I just needed one. I’m better now.
