Gaz Coombes pulls shows after breaking leg
By Andy Malt | Published on Tuesday 20 November 2018
Gaz Coombes has been forced to cancel a number of European shows and postpone UK dates after his daughter kung fu kicked his leg in half.
“I’ve only gone and broken my leg”, tweeted Coombes. “Larking around with the kids I got Bruce Lee’d by my fifteen year old, and let’s just say she connected too well. I’m going in for surgery today [at the John Radcliffe hospital in] Oxford, where everyone has been completely amazing”.
All European shows to the end of the year are now off. Meanwhile, four UK shows in Guildford, Frome, Wolverhampton and Worthing, originally set for January, have now been moved back to May.
