U2 frontman Bono says that he may never be able to play guitar again since enduring a bike accident in New York City’s Central Park earlier this year, according to the New York Daily News. The artist posted a year-end message on the band’s website, explaining that recovery from the crash, which happened in November, has been more difficult than he initially thought it would be. He said that he, “blanked out on impact,” from the crash. “[I] have no memory of how I ended up in New York Presbyterian with my humerus bone sticking through my leather jacket. Very punk rock as injuries go,” the 54-year-old rocker wrote. As of right now Bono isn’t sure if he’ll be ready to kick off the band’s scheduled 2015 tour, which is set to start in Vancouver, Canada on in May and go until their six-date run at Madison Square Garden in July. “I have cancelled every public appearance and decided this missive is all the communication I can manage for the first half of 2015, beyond muttering and singing to myself of course,” Bono said.
