Following the bus crash yesterday that injured lead singer Rivers Cuomo, Weezer has cancelled its remaining December tour dates.

On Dec. 6, a tour bus carrying Cuomo, his wife, infant daughter and nanny slid off the road after skidding on ice in New York. The group’s website has a full report, including pictures of rescue crews using the jaws of life to pry out Cuomo, who suffered three broken ribs.
 
“We are sorry to say that the rest of the December Raditude Tour has been cancelled - when we can reschedule the dates we will, of course,” according to the site. “I have no ticket or refund or whatever info at this time, but stay tuned to this site and the ticketing websites for more info. For now its a waiting game for all of us. Thanks for your kind thoughts and good wishes, we need them!”
 
Weezer had three remaining dates scheduled for this month: Dec. 7 in Boston, Dec. 9 in Washington, D.C. and Dec. 10 in Camden, N.J.
