Well this is a bit of good and bad news. The bad news is that David Bazan‘s van was crashed into in a parking lot in Chicago by a drunk driver, damaging some gear and destroying a trailer. The good news is that no one was hurt and the tour will seemingly go on as scheduled. Everybody’s very lucky that no one got hurt – based on the damage done, someone could have been mortally wounded.
So far as we know, the Control Tenth Anniversary Tour will continue as planned. If that changes, we’ll update you on its happenings, as well as my on setting depression from what would be missing my first Bazan show.
The only source of this information is David’s manager, Bob, on their Twitter account. See the first hand information here for yourself by clicking “Read more.”
