Deftones Bassist Chi Cheng Left In Coma
Deftones bassist Chi Cheng has been in a serious car accident in Santa Clara, CA and is reported to be in a coma.
In a post on the Deftones studio Blog, frontman Chino Moreno has said: “It deeply saddens me to inform you all that our brother Chi Cheng was involved in a terrible car accident [Monday] night. He is currently in a Northern California hospital in serious, but stable condition. I am on my way up north right now to be by his side, along with the rest of our bandmates and family. Chi is one of the strongest people I know, and I’m praying that his strength will get him through this. Please say a prayer for him as well.”

Horrible news about Chi being in a car crash and now in a coma.
Positive thoughts go out to him, his family and all his friends and of course the rest of Deftones.
It’s not time to be hanging with Bukowski or Hunter yet, so stay strong Chi and make a speedy and full recovery.
I’m off to listen to ‘Around The Fur’…….
Get well soon Chi.
Hope he gets well soon.
