The Church Cancel Tour After Drummer Falls Off Stage

The Church have cancelled a string of upcoming shows in Germany and the UK after drummer Tim Powles fell and injured himself during a concert in the US last week. 

In a statement issued over the weekend, the Sydney outfit said Powles "suffered a nasty fall off the front of the stage and fractured his foot.

"Up until today we had wanted to proceed with the shows with our 'miraculous one footed drummer', but new tests reveal Tim has developed a blood clot in his leg, while awaiting surgery.

"The high risk of DVT in this condition means that flying is entirely out of the question."

It continues, "Nobody is more disappointed by this than the band.

"We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused, and look forward to making it up to everyone as soon as we can."
