Legendary nineties rock star reveals he lost two TOES in...

LEGENDARY 90s rock star Chris Burney has revealed he has lost two TOES in new health update. It comes after Bowling For Soup guitarist Chris, 55, announced that he had permanently retired from the band last summer. Chris took to Instagram to share a health update as he revealed he had lost two of his toes, but did not detail when or how it happened. The musician simply shared a photo of his left foot with the missing toes and wrote: "I’m a Free-nubbin, butt-rubbin son of a gun.".

He also shared a selfie of him sitting on his sofa and sticking out his tongue. It comes not long after Chris reportedly suffered a leg injury and took time out from the band to focus on his health. This meant the rocker was absent from Download Festival 2024 and the group have continued to perform as a trio without him. They also announced earlier this year that Chris would not be in the line-up for their UK 20th anniversary tour A Hangover You Don’t Deserve.

Sharing a post on social media, they said: "To All Our Amazing Bowling For Soup Fans… It is with a heavy heart we announce that Chris Burney has made the decision to retire from his stage-right post in the band he co-founded in 1994. “Some recent medical developments, 30 years of rocking balls and touring non-stop have made it difficult to continue. "We are bummed to not have Chris by our sides, but absolutely support his decision.

“The three of us will carry on, with Chris’ blessing, and continue to build the legacy of this band we all love so much.". They confirmed that Chris would not be replaced by another guitarist - saying "you cannot replace a legend". The group added: "We were brothers when we started this journey… and brothers we remain. “See you at the shows and in your ears.” You can see the full statement in the post above.".

The band also comprises of lead vocalist Jaret Reddick, drummer Gary Wiseman and bass and backing vocals Rob Felicetti. Speaking about the decision to not replace Chris, frontman Jaret told K!: "He and I started this band 30 years ago, almost 31 now, and at one point, he was kind of the face of the band. "I can't say it enough: we wouldn't be us, or where we are, without him.”. The band was formed in 1994 in Wichita Falls, Texas.
