Guitarist Gem Archer had to take leave from the band this year after fracturing his skull in an accident at home, forcing the band to cancel a series of appearances.
Speaking to the NME at the gig, Archer opened up about the accident: "The odd thing is I can't remember falling, or much after it. It was pretty serious, shall we say, and there are a lot of people affected by it, but it seems we're through it. My wife, certainly, and the kids… It was something I wouldn't wish on anybody. I almost feel I missed it all, but they didn't – they went through it and it was horrible."
