After having minor surgery on an infected thumb blister, Aaron Gillespie attempted to rejoin Underoath last night but was still unable to play drums. As such, the drummer will remain off the tour for an indefinite period of time. Kenny Bozich, drummer in Aaron Gillespie\'s side project The Almost, is filling in on drums. Comments Aaron:\"(...) I have missed the last six shows due to a minor surgery that I had on my right thumb last week. So... today I flew out to Portland, Oregon to rejoin the tour. We sound checked and my thumb began to feel like it was going to fall off and as you know you have to have a thumb to play drums. So to make this short I have to fly back home for more recovery, Kenny from The Almost is going to continue to fill in for me until I make a full recovery.\"
Last week Aaron went to the hospital with a really bad infection in his finger caused by a blister from playing. Blisters are common for drummers but normally they don\'t get nasty infections in them.
