Paddingtons single and gory injury news

The Paddingtons release their new single 'Sorry' on 17 Oct, from forthcoming album 'First Comes First', which is out on 31 Oct. And now the gory injury news - actually it's fairly old news, but is related (the only reason we haven't reported on it earlier is because of my fellow editor's notorious intolerance for blood and stuff). Anyway, the band's guitarist Marv Hines injured his hand last week in an incident involving a glass drinking receptacle and a wall. He lost rather a lot of blood due to a severed artery, and ended up in hospital. Hines has had plastic surgery on this hand, but is not expected to be playing guitar for at least three months, meaning that he is unable to perform any further in their current tour, although he plans to be on the road with them. He said quite a lot of things to NME describing the injury, but I'm not going to report them here. In case my fellow editor faints.
