My Chemical Romance: "No monster attacks"
Published Saturday, Aug 12 2006, 09:57 BST | By David Cribb
My Chemical Romance have ended the rumours surrounding mystery injuries to the band.
The group had to cancel a gig last weekend, and cited injuries to two unnamed band members as the reason. Rumours began to sweep the Internet, with claims of car crashes and even alien abductions rife.
The band explained the situation in a statement on their website: "There are tons of rumours and allegations floating around, and we want to clear it up for all of you. While shooting a new video for our new record... Gerard (Way - singer) tore multiple ligaments in his ankle and Bob (Bryar - drums) received a bad burn to the back of his leg.
"The pain was overwhelming and we could not pull through without further injuring ourselves. So there you have it, there were no car wrecks, monster attacks or alien abductions, but there were serious injuries that required this to be the way."
