There was a bullitin on myspace about this.
"Jamie here...........just thought I'd send this message out to everyone on the friends list, to spread the word........
This morning, approximately 8:30 am, the Guyan household was struck by a serious top floor house fire - It's completely gutted Guyan's room and smoke damaged Grant's room but more seriously, left Guyan with burns from the waist up.....most seriously on his hands - worst possible case senario for any guitarist. He's been transferred to a burn unit in Glasgow and is probably being pumped full of morphine as I speak.
It's too soon to tell how long he's gonna be healing for, or even how long he'll be in hospital for, for that matter - but we're talking months, possibly a year.
.....over the next while, we're going to show our support by starting a fund towards equipment for him, as he's lost everything in his room in the fire....
the takings from the Balcony gig on April 21st are going straight towards this fund - Grant's going to ask at his work and we're also going to have a whip-around of friends and well-wishers to see if they want to contribute anything.
I know for a fact he'll be devestated about missing out on the forthcoming gigs.....Anthrax, Cannibal Corpse, Down (that's a real bastard to miss) and even the Download Festival we all so greatly anticipate. I've contacted Anthrax to see if they can sign something for him, any kind of correspondance, so hopefully they'll reply to that.
just thought i'd give everyone the heads up that the Hellbound family has been wounded temporarily, but give it time and we'll be more committed than ever.
get well Guyan! We'll miss you!"
Hope he makes a full recovery
