Mastodon’s Brent Hinds Breaks Leg, to Miss Upcoming Shows

Mastodon guitarist/vocalist Brent Hinds has broken his leg and will miss upcoming shows with Giraffe Tongue Orchestra, West End Motel and Fiend Without a Face.

He broke the leg while starting his motorcycle. Not exactly sure how that works, but we’d have to imagine the bike fell over on him which sounds incredibly painful. Hinds revealed the news in a post on his Instagram:
