Westerberg put a screwdriver through his hand, OUCH
Paul Westerberg, formerly of the Replacements, and solo artist, somehow stuck a screwdriver through his hand causing nerve damage, according to a CNN blurb I saw while channel surfing tonight. Apparently he was trying to get wax out of a candle? He may not play guitar for a year according to the report. Poor guy. Dang, thats GOTTA hurt! This is on the heels of a pretty good year for him, scoring the soundtrack for "Open Season" and getting back together with former bandmates to record a couple tracks to release as part of a Rhino retrospective.
