There have been an unheard of number of tour-related accident this Fall. From bus crashes, to van flips, to earlier today when Dance Gavin Dance discovered their bus had caught on fire.

Taking to social networks this evening, drummer Matt Mingus filled fans in on the incident:

So that was a first. Woke up to our tour bus on fire today. Thank goodness no one was hurt. Don’t worry we are not missing any shows either. And thanks to the St. Pettersburg fire department for their amazing response time I’m sure it could have been a lot worse.

Shadows Fall And God Forbid’s Tour Bus Catches Fire

“Music” fan Kevin Beaudette, of Tupper Lake, NY, sustained minor injuries when he fell into a gorge while trying to sneak into a Nickelback concert at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center. Not “out of” the concert, multiple sources have verified, but “into.” It’s true.

Beaudette, 22, was lifted by rescue basket from the gorge, which turns out not to be a metaphor for the empty and endless emotional abyss left in one’s soul as a result of listening to Nickelback, but rather a 40-foot crevasse in the earth, from which a person can actually be retrieved. Beaudette was treated for cuts and bruises at Albany Medical Center, and released Wednesday. Authorities believe alcohol was a factor in the accident and in the life choices that led to this level of Nickelback fandom.
