Dirt Drifters' Guitarist Breaks Arm During Video Shoot

The Dirt Drifters definitely give their all to each and every performance, but the musical wildmen may have taken it just a little too far recently when their guitarist Jeff Middleton broke his arm in the middle of filming the video for the group's new single, 'Something Better.' When director Wes Edwards strapped GoPro HD Hero cameras (the type used at the X Games to capture all the intense, fast-moving action from crazy angles,) on heads, arms, guitars, drums, and anywhere he could, he expected to get some crazy shots ... but broken bones definitely weren't part of the plan for the band's debut video!

"Normally, making videos isn't an extreme contact sport," says Drifters frontman Matt Fleener, "but in our case it was! Why? Because Jeff broke his arm! He broke it right around 2:35 in the video. He's all better now, but he can't help but cringe a little when we play it on the RV in slow motion ... over and over."
