Chino Moreno Is Alive (But His Bass Player Is In Pretty Bad Shape)
In case your headline-skimming today led you to believe that Deftones lead singer Chino Moreno was spending today in the hospital, there’s good news and much worse news. The good news is that Moreno is actually fine. The bad news is that there is a member of the stoner-rock outfit in the hospital: Bassist Chi Cheng was involved in a car accident Monday night, and he’s currently in serious, but stable condition at a Northern California hospital. There are rumors that Cheng is in a coma; Moreno told the Sacramento Bee, “I don’t know everything that’s going on–I just know it’s very serious… I’m on my way to be with his family, I’m pretty freaked out about it.” Here’s hoping for a speedy recovery.
