Baroness' John Baizley Almost Had Arm Amputated After Bus Crash

(Classic Rock) Baroness guitarist and vocalist John Baizley faced having his arm amputated following the horror accident that saw the band's vehicle plunging 30ft off a bridge.

The drama took place in England in a heavy rainstorm after the bus brakes failed, and put the entire US band and their driver in hospital.

Last week guitarist Baizley, who remains in a wheelchair, recounted the "horrible silent goodbye" he and the driver shared as they realised the crash was inevitable. Now he's revealed a planned three-hour operation lasted nearly three times as long while doctors fought to make sense of the bone fragments remaining in his left arm.
