U2's Bono 'Basically Can't Move' After Bike Accident Says Bandmate
. The rocker called in to CBS Radio station KROQ's Kevin & Bean Show Wednesday morning (Dec. 3) to discuss the incident, as well as the tour. 'He managed to come out of it with what you could only describe as injuries from a car crash, literally, multiple fractures of bones in his elbow and in his back," The Edge said. "But he's doing OK." Don't worry--though his injuries, which included multiple fractures (chiefly a facial fracture affecting the orbit of his eye and a humerus bone fracture in his left arm that tore through the skin), may have been severe, at least he was wearing a helmet. 'We're kind of lucky he was wearing a helmet so he didn't actually break Central Park," the guitarist said. "But he's made of tough stuff and he's bouncing back. He's so upset about the fact that, unfortunately we're about to announce, we're not going to be able to do the Acoustic Christmas because he's been told by his doctors that he's got to stay put. He's back in Dublin right now and basically he can't move for the next couple of months."� He's referring to KROQ's annual Almost Acoustic Christmas show, at which U2 was scheduled to headline. 'It was a Sunday, a lot of people in the park and he just wasn't paying enough attention," he continued, referencing the accident. "He was going fast down a bit of a hill and somebody came out onto the cycle way, he swerved to avoid them and just went straight over the bars." Read more here.
