Drummer's injury causes rockers to reschedule

Tool have announced that they will have to postpone their upcoming tour of North America.

The rescheduling is due to an injury sustained by the band's drummer, Danny Carey, who tore a bicep last weekend. As a result, he had to undergo surgery yesterday (February 21). He is recovering well, but no new dates have been set.

It remains to be seen whether the band will retain their headlining slot at Tennessee's Bonnaroo Festival alongside The Police.

The US rockers intend to announce their rescheduled tour dates shortly.
