"YO muthatruckas! Just wanted to let y'all know that I broke a fuckin' toe of my right foot during a show in Barcelona by slamming it into a monitor wedge, (yea, I was sober) so if and when you see me moving around like a retard, that I apparently am, that's why. But fuck it anyway, the tour will keep on rolling as planned so see you muthas soon and a big fuckin' thank you to all the crazy crowds we've had so far.. It's been a blast!"
