Hier folgt die offizielle Mitteilung von der Bandhomepage:

"To Whom It May Concern;
On behalf of Venom.
Cronos from Venom has been injured in a climbing
accident and will be out of action for quite a while.
The accident has left him with injuries to his neck,
muscles and tendons, this will result in limited functions
for what could be several months.
Doctors have said that accidents like this can be fatal
in some cases although he was lucky and with the right
rest and physiotherapy should recover fully.
All concert plans are obviously on hold until further notice.
I'll keep you up-to-date with his progress.
Many thanks.
Andrew Fuller

I have talked to CRONOS since we received this info, and thankfully, as the
statement says, He will be OK!!! But he`s gonna have to take it easy for the next while!"
