Dammit. How does this keep happening? I suppose with the relentless touring and so little time off it's not unlikely. Maybe settling down to do some studio recording for a few months/few years will give his back the rest it needs. I think he's really got to do something about it before it becomes a permanent problem.SumGeek wrote:Apparently, from what I've read on Twitter, the band has cancelled tonights show that was supposed to take place in Quebec City, as Deryck has injured his back again.
What was starting off as a good year, isn't going so well now! Poor D. Sending him virtual hugs.

Well, I think Deryck has said it'll always be a problem for him, unfortunately! I think he was doing some Pilates? to help with the injury, but I guess you can only do so much. The guy's a trooper, though. He's played through shows despite him being told not to. It's just another bump in the road for him. It sucks because being on stage is his favorite place to be, but, maybe some downtime and rest is as you said, long overdue by this point. After all, they've been touring pratically non-stop lately, especially this end of 2012-beginning 2013.Gregorovich wrote:Dammit. How does this keep happening?

I just think there must be something the doctors will be able to do to at least hinder this problem from recurring so regularly. It's a huge blow both to the band and the fans that so many tours have been cancelled because of it; and while that's inevitable, it would do everybody good for them to find some kind of longer-term solution.SumGeek wrote:Well, I think Deryck has said it'll always be a problem for him, unfortunately!

Well, I know how tough it is; My Mom has a back injury relating to a disc, and rest is something well needed, but you know, stubbornness takes over and everyday life happens. I mean, surgery is an option in these cases, but who knows what will happen with D. Maybe rest is just something his body needs, it could be more. I mean, with how many times this has occurred since it first happened, you'd think it would be getting worse and straining him physically. I'm just glad they're taking precautions and putting Deryck's best interest first.Gregorovich wrote:I just think there must be something the doctors will be able to do to at least hinder this problem from recurring so regularly.

So you're talking about the comments that they left Warped Tour few years ago because "they didn't feel like playing it", and not because of Deryck's back?carr wrote:There is some interesting rumored information about the Warped Tour in the comment section here (throughout all pages)

Yeah, Sum 41 live to play live shows. There's no way they wouldn't be up for a tour.TomiT14 wrote:So you're talking about the comments that they left Warped Tour few years ago because "they didn't feel like playing it", and not because of Deryck's back?carr wrote:There is some interesting rumored information about the Warped Tour in the comment section here (throughout all pages)

Okay, so they played Warped in 2010 and 2011. Not sure if he was talking about the 2010 or 2011 tour. In 2010 they left Warped to play a few shows in Summer Sonic in Japan, where he was attacked at the bar. They were supposed to go back to continue Warped after that, but of course they "didn't feel like doing the tour"; Deryck had just been attacked and injured his back big time.
In 2011, they'd had a 2-month European tour until mid-August, and they only managed to join Warped for a few shows before Deryck re-injured his back before heading to South Africa. They "didn't feel like doing" the few Warped shows left, since they wanted to make sure Deryck's back would be ok for the South African shows. They didn't want to disappoint the African fans, so to be able to perform there they took a few extra days off for Deryck, in the expense of Warped.
So yeah, they "didn't feel like doing the tour", but the back issues were there.
After cancelling the few shows in 2011 Warped, they went on to cancel the Asian, Canadian and UK tours, being off the road for 8 months. I highly doubt they would cancel their only source for income just because they "didn't feel like doing the tour".
