EPICA Tour Bus Involved In Road Accident

In the early hours of Friday, February 12, EPICA's tour bus crashed on Canadian Highway 1 while driving in the Rocky Mountains when a car lost control and went spinning for the bus. The bus driver, Dave Mabry, managed to avoid a head-on collision by running the bus against the rail-guard.

Although the car was totaled and the bus suffered severe damage and some band and crew members got thrown out of their bunks, no one was hurt.

After a few hours delay and some on-the-spot repairs, the bus was able to continue the journey to Victoria, British Columbia, Canada.

Photos of the damage can be viewed below (pictures provided by EPICA's front-of-house engineer Raymond Tabak).
