No Children of Bodom in Albany

Apparently, Alexi Laiho – singer-guitarist with the Helsinki, Finland-based metal band Children of Bodom – took a rather serious tumble in a tour bus accident earlier this month, breaking his shoulder and suffering internal bleeding.

“What can I say? I’m jinxed!,” Alexi declares on the band’s MySpace page. “End of story.”

Which means that the band has been forced to drop off of its current tour with headliners Lamb of God. The show will go on as scheduled at the Washington Avenue Armory on Wednesday, May 13 – but without Children of Bodom.
