MEGADETH's CHRIS BRODERICK Says He Is 'A Poster Child For Stupidity'

January 19, 2010

MEGADETH guitarist Chris Broderick has issued the following update:

"How many times have you been told safety first? I always felt like I was being nagged, but now I am the one advocating safety.

"Last night I was breaking down boxes to put in the recycling bin, and the unthinkable happened. I cut my thumb on my right hand with a box cutter (razor blade). Instantly I knew I needed to get to the emergency room to make sure I hadn't cut my career along with my thumb. Luckily I didn't cut any tendons and will only have to lay off the guitar for a couple weeks.

"If you are squeamish at all, don't look at the pictures [below].

"I'm bummed I didn't get to play with my brothers at the 'NAMM Jam' [on Friday, January 15 at The Grove of Anaheim in Anaheim, California]. I was told no one in MEGADETH was playing and decided not to go to that party. Needless to say, I missed out on a great time."
