"Taylor had broken the fifth Metatarsal bone in his right ‘bass drum’ foot late last year, when he was in the United States and had been ordered to rest for several weeks," said a statement posted on the band's website. "Following doctor’s orders, the drummer’s first show after the accident was on Thursday evening (1/13) at London’s Hammersmith Palais (this was an intimate show that was being taped for broadcast on UK radio later this month). The following day, Taylor’s foot was severely swollen and painful and after a medical examination today, Roger was told that unless he rested the foot for an additional period of time he could risk serious long-term damage."

The band was scheduled to launch its world tour Jan. 22 in Tokyo; Taylor is expected to be able to resume playing in time for the group's U.S. tour, which is scheduled to open in mid-February, according to the statement.
