Amity Affliction drummer injured at Warped Tour

Australian metalcore/post-hardcore band The Amity Affliction has revealed that drummer Ryan Burt sustained an eye injury while performing at Warped Tour earlier this week, requiring immediate eye surgery. Glass Cloud drummer Chad Hasty will be filling in for the remainder of the tour. Here's the official word:
"During our set at Warped Tour in Portland a few days ago, our drummer Ryan sustained an injury while performing. A piece of his drumstick chipped off going right into his cornea which caused a cut and required immediate eye surgery. We couldn't make it to today's Warped Tour set in San Diego however we'll be back in Pomona. Our mate Chad from Glass Cloud will fill in behind the kit for the rest of the tour. We wish our brother a speedy recovery."
