The trials and tribulations of Modest Mouse go on with the news that Isaac Brock was reportedly clobbered with a glass bottle early this month.
It accounted so much damage that it left Brock requiring surgery, forcing the band to cancel a number of European shows including regrettably the O2 Wireless Festival date, where they were on the White Stripes bill.
Its not clear how or when the incident happened as the band's publicist have declined to give us a statement, however Dani on the ModMouse forum posted a video to YouTube which you can watch below where Issac explains to an inquisitive (and brave) fan just what happened.
If you cant decipher over the crowd noise, then Brock replies somewhere along the lines of "I got hit in the face with a bottle....its broken or fractured.....gonna have surgery on it tomorrow."
It looks like their Glastonbury date on the 22nd June will be unaffected.
