Weezer Lead Singer Banged Up in Bus Crash

Weezer Lead Singer Banged Up in Bus CrashThe lead singer of Weezer was hospitalized today after a bus he and his family were riding in crashed in New York.

Rivers Cuomo was taken to a hospital in Amsterdam this morning after complaining of rib pain -- luckily, his wife and daughter emerged unscathed. Only one other person was taken to the hospital.

The bus driver said the accident occurred at around 7:30 this morning, when he lost control of the vehicle after hitting a patch of ice. The driver said the bus went into the median, hit reflective posts, crossed back over the highway and crashed into a ditch.

OOOOH WWEEEEEEE OOOOOHHH, I wonder if he looks like Buddy Holly? Just kidding. I really do hope that he is okay, as Weezer is one of the greatest bands out there right now (of course they originated in the 90's) and I don't want to see it be the end of their reign for making every song they do completely different!
