» Link: Mark E. Smith, Living Leg-end, Breaks Hip (Again)
five years after his last excursion in pelvic disaster, which nearly killed him, the fall’s frontman has apparently re-broken his hip. for reference, here he is after last time (courtesy of stephen over at the fall online):

apparently his experience gave rise to the opiate-blurred lyrics of “blindness,” which is one of the best tracks out of england in the last twenty years, so here’s hoping “the great m.e.s.” gets back on his feet again.
