Pitchfork

Things you probably shouldn't do when you've already got a messed up wrist: initiate a strict morning push-up regiment, flail your arms wildly, fall off a ladder.

Sucks for Caribou drummer Brad Weber, then, who did indeed fall from a ladder prior to a scheduled Caribou show at Washington, DC's Rock and Roll Hotel last night (March 30). Weber, still recovering from an injury suffered back in February, broke his wrist during the fall, prompting Caribou to cancel their DC gig and at least one more show tonight in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Weber will be out of commission for four to six weeks, according to Caribou's publicist. The band is flying in a possible replacement and still pondering the fate of those many upcoming live engagements with Fuck Buttons (they're still on for now). Here's hoping Weber makes a swift recovery, at least in time to join the band at ATP vs. Pitchfork in May!
