Citing exhaustion, Andy Nicholson, bassist for the Arctic Monkeys, will take the summer off, missing the summer leg of the band's tour. In a statement posted on their
web site, the band announced, "owing to fatigue following an intensive period of touring, Andy Nicholson shall be taking a rest and will not be accompanying Arctic Monkeys on their forthcoming tour of North America." Hopefully, Nicholson's exhaustion is not the Lindsay Lohan type of "exhaustion" that seems to befall her every four to six months
Replacing the 19-year-old Nicholson will be Nick O'Malley, lately of another Sheffield band
the Dodgems.
