<a href="http://www.punknews.org/bands/evergreenterrace">Evergreen Terrace</a> drummer Kyle Mims was injured in a bike accident on Wednesday. The band posted this update: <blockquote> After yesterday's practice, Kyle (drummer) was in a horrific bike accident. He was rushed to the emergency room and released late last night full of stitches and a broken clavicle (collar bone). Unfortunately he will have to have surgery and physical therapy for the next 4-8 weeks. So for obvious reasons he will not be with us on our upcoming headlining shows or the Summer Slob tour with The Acacia Strain. </blockquote> <p> The band's next album, <i>Almost Home</i> is due out this year.
