SCORPIONS Guitarist MATTHIAS JABS On "Bad Accident" That Is Derailing Band's September Shows - "I Will Try Everything To Be Able To Play Guitar Again"

Hard rock legends, Scorpions, recently cancelled all upcoming German dates in September, due to guitarist Matthias Jabs injury, which required surgery and subsequent rehabilitation.

Matthias has since issued the following update:

"Dear fans and friends, as you might have heard already, i had a bad accident in my rented summer house. I fell down the stairs with 16 steps and broke my left pinky twice and I also broke my left heel.

"I had surgeries on both, hand and foot, by the best specialists I could find in Hamburg. Now it is time to heal and start the physical rehabilitation for a speedy recovery.

"I will try everything to be able to play guitar again on stage as soon as possible. I am sorry to tell you, that the shows in September won't be happening, but I am very optimistic that we will see you again very soon. Rock n Roll forever, Yours  Matthias."
