"Some friends of mine in Armed For Battle were jumped in Oakland a few days ago when they went to record there upcoming CD. A large group of kids Maced them outside of the studio and beat them with bats and other weapons. They were all hospitalized (broken rips, fractured skull, internal bleeding was some of the damage done) and everything they had was stolen including their equipment and wallets. Here's an update from them.
Update: We all are doing good, our guitarist left the hospital this morning and he's walking/talking again...he had a skull fracture and needed a metal plate in his head but for the rest of us it's just staples in the head and alot of bruises and welts...
