Dear friends,

We (KOK & Press Play) met with a terrible accident on our way home from Klang. We're glad to inform those who heard of our accident that we're all safely home now.

Abt an hour into our returning leg of the tour, our bus skidded and drifted to the left of the Seremban highway before hitting the bottom of a slope and toppled to the left side of the bus. All of was were seated on the right side of the bus and were flung to the left, breaking the glass windows with our bodies.

Miraculously, we suffered only bruises and cuts. However, the drummers from both bands suffered a dislocated collar bone (Colin) and head injuries (Anand). The exits were blocked but we managed to crawl out from underneath the wreck.

Reporters and buses from other bus companies arrived earlier than the cops. However, NO ONE INCLUDING THE COPS rendered any help. We were all shivering in the rain, shouting for help but it was also us who got ourselves and the casualties out ourselves.

We were then stranded in the cold rain for more than an hour while Colin and Anand were taken to the hospital. The cops didn't even offered us shelter or a lift to the hospital to reunite with our brothers. We hitched a ride from the last bus to Yong Peng where we met up with relatives of PressPlay who helped arrange the rest of our passage home.

We managed to lodge a report at Yong Peng after much difficulties (cops again) and left for home late this morning. Our brothers, Colin & Anand were home just a few hours before frm Seremban Hospital and are doing great.

I'd like to take the opportunity to thank Press Play relatives for being so quick to help and sending Colin back to SG.

Hairil of My Precious for being a friend-roadie-buddy-ramly-burger-master and going on the trip with us. We're really sorry about your injuries. Thanks for everything dude!

Last but not least, members of Disgruntled who brought us to Klang, fed us and being so fast to help recover whatever equipment we lost in the crash. THANKS!

Cheers,
ray
