———–
PLEASE HELP OUT A BROTHER. This weekend, Jack Control (singer for Severed Head of State & World Burns To Death) was stabbed in the mid-section while breaking up a fight. It was a deep stab that nearly hit his heart (missed by less than 1cm). He lost more than half his blood supply at the scene and nearly died. He had immediate surgery and is now in stable condition…but he’s not alright. Besides being in an excruciating amount of pain, his hospital bills are already OUTRAGEOUS.
If you can help in ANY way, please contact Timmy Hefner via MySpace or better yet send money via PayPal to:

Timmy is handling pretty much all of Jack’s contact with the outside world right now since Jack is not able to do so himself.

REPOST FROM ASHLEY/SIGNAL LOST
Q: Who the hell would stab Jack Control?
A: … a fucking hobo crusty jackass… Ok so here is an update:
There was a large show on North Loop on Saturday night. At the end of the night some random trainhopper kids got rowdy. One guy kicked in the window of The Parlor (the pizza place Jazzys family owns) Jazzy, Zack and Jack went outside to confront these guys and a big mess broke out. Jack stepped in to stop one of these guys from hitting jazzy. This is when one of the guys came from behind Jack and stabbed him in the gut. The fight pretty much ended at that point.
The suspect fled & Jack started walking away and casually stated that they needed to leave. The police and EMS arrived shortly after. The guy that had stabbed Jack goes by the name of “bingo” and was arrested only a few blocks away from the scene. Jack was taken to Brackeridge hospital by EMS and was in surgry for about 4 hours… The wound went pretty deep and got really close to his heart and he lost alot of blood. He is curently recovering in ICU at Brackenridge Hospital. “bingo” is still in custody and being charged with attempted murder.
Jack will be in the hospital for a few more days and his bills have gotten to over 80 thousand dollars. Timmys got a paypal account set up. And we are in the process of setting up some other things to help out with random expenses… Benefit shows can’t put a dent in such expensive hospital bills but they can def. help with other things apparently getting stabbed costs alot of money…
If you want to help out with setting up shows in your city contact me. Please don’t call me or e-mail me with stupid questions and hearsay gossip shit. But if you can help out let us know. Jack is pretty much the toughest guy I know and he’ll be fine but seeing him in the hospital with all those machines fucking sucks.
If you are a CLOSE friend of Jacks Im sure he appretiates visitors and your sent regards but please keep your visits short. And don’t piss off the nurses…
