RIOT Bassist "Suffers Major Blow To Head" In Fall

2006-01-30 10:41:19

RIOT have posted the following message at their official web site:

"On Friday January 27th the day of RIOT`s performance in Las Vegas, Pete Perez (bass) fell down at Mark's (Reale - guitar) house

in Long Island and suffered a major blow to his head, he was rushed to the hospital around 7:30am after not knowing where he was, what day it was or even who he was. Doctors told Mark they did not want Pete to get on the air plain but wanted him to stay over night so test could be performed to see if any other injuries had taken place. After several hours in the hospital, Pete started to come around but still was a bit foggy on what happened to him, Mark told him what had happen and what the doctors want to do, so Pete had no choice but to stay in the hospital that night for more test. The rest of the band did not want to cancel the day of the show after all ready having to re schedule these shows, so they decided to board the air craft with out Pete to perform as a four piece. The boys played all the hits and each night made an announcement about Pete's condition and why he was night going to be performing with the band. Meanwhile, a friend of Franks went to see Pete at the hospital on Saturday, he was doing much better and asked about the band, he told him that they went on with out him to perform as a four piece. Pete was happy to see that they where doing the shows but was sad that he was not their, the doctors where still not sure why he fill down and some of the tests had not come back yet, so Pete stayed in for a second night. The band would like to thank all the fans who made there way to each show, this was a history making weekend for RIOT but all of you supported them so well, hats off to all our fans. Pete will return to San Antonio on Monday, he will need to rest and recoup from his medical condition, therefore the band will have to re schedule FRIDAY FEBRUARY 3rd at JAXX the band just will not be able to reset this soon and are very sorry to all the fans that where making their way to this show, but the band just can not make this show at this time."

Actually it is written phonetically in the official language of New York, which is called "Fuckin Brooklyn".

That's fucking mean, but really fucking funny!

I saw Riot open for KISS in 1984. They didn't have "all the hits" back then. They must have penned them later.

Either way, this guy falls and takes a blow to the head, but no one seems to know what happened? And it happened at a bandmember's house???

Sounds like Riot wants to go four-piece on this guy and didn't know how to tell him.

Hope he gets better...then sues for "slip and fall". Long live Riot.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking; 80s hair metal or some shit. I think I used to burn their pic in the pages of BAM.

The band was formed in 1976. They were before A LOT of those 80s hair metal band. And they played metal/hard rock in NY when it wasn't a fashion. When everybody was playing punk, new wave or everybody's favourite music it seems, disco. 30 years in the business.

But it's not a band I like apart from the first 3 LP.

So I guess a lot of you didn't know the band before posting...

1976? Really?? Damn, they are old. I think I may have seen them live back in the day, not 76 tho!
