Riverboat Gamblers guitarist Ian Mcdougall was injured last weekend in a bike accident. He was hit by a car while riding home and suffered a broken hip, a wrist and hemorrhaging under the skull along with many lacerations, torn ligaments, bruises and and scrapes. While his prognosis is better than his bandmates first assumed he’s facing a long recovery and some monster hospital bills. Fat Wreck Chords has announced their plans to release a 3 CD boxed set titled Wrecktrospective The first CD will contain classic tracks from the label’s back catalog, the second will contain demo and unreleased tracks, while the third will feature songs from the original 2001 Fat Club 7-inch series. The Lawrence Arms will film their upcoming 10th Anniversary show on October 24th in Chicago. The band is also streaming two new songs from their upcoming EP. Blink-182‘s Mark Hoppus came out in support of health care reform in a new Huffington Post editorial. The musician writes about a member of the catering crew on the Blink’s summer tour who had to have an appendix removed but lacked insurance due to a “pre-existing conditions.” Her bill reached more than $48,000. This being the Halloween season we’re also seeing the barriers between worlds break down, leading to all manor of terrifying evils entering our world. Case in point: Hole has plans to reunite.

A Wilhelm Scream has announced a new EP and posted a new song from the release. Against Me! has titled their next album White Crosses. Epitaph has planned to reissue a number of records from the Blood Brothers, including Young Machetes, Crimes, Burn Piano Island, Burn and March on Electric Children. Propagandhi has announced plans to play a show with Metal legends Sacrifice. Anti-Flag is soon to hit the road with Aiden, Cancer Bats and Fireworks. North Lincoln is calling it a day. Their final show will take place in their hometown of Grand Rapids, MI on December 19 at Mulligan’s Pub. An AFI cover of David Bowie’s “Ziggy Stardust” was posted this week. Finally this week saw videos of Lily Allen‘s “Who’d Have Known” and Weezer‘s “(If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To.”
