Vampire Weekend drummer hurt in traffic incident

Vampire Weekend drummer Chris Tomson sustained a head injury in a collision outside the Hoxton Hotel in London after attending the NME Awards.

Chris Tomson, drummer with Vampire Weekend, has sustained a head injury after colliding with a car in London last night. To be honest, it's not clear whether it was just him that did the colliding, or if he was in a car that did the colliding, but I suspect it was the latter. The musician had apparently attended the NME Awards prior to the incident, which took place outside the Hoxton Hotel some time after midnight. Reports suggest there was a fair amount of blood at the scene, so I hope he's okay. He was taken to the Royal London Hospital for treatment.
