Chevelle singer/guitarist Pete Loeffler was hospitalized after injuring his knee when he fell on stage earlier this week. The accident happened during Chevelle's show at the Rialto Theatre in Tucson, Ariz. on Monday night, Oct. 8.

Proving that nothing can stop rock 'n' roll, Loeffler returned to the stage after the group took a break to assess his injury. Chevelle finished their set with Loeffler sitting on a drum stool for the remainder of the performance.

Luckily for Loeffler, hospital tests showed that he didn't break his knee. He left the hospital with a brace and will likely perform sitting during Chevelle's next few tour dates.

Never heard of this boy. Or his little band. They must be some head banging over hyped noise makers. Where has the real music talent gone?? Its all about garbage noise and shock value these days, not talent.

Oh I know why he looks familiar. He's the old singer from that metal band, Intellectual Deficits.
