Ageing pin-up David Cassidy is recovering from a fractured finger as he tours America.
Performing in New York on Thursday night (19Jul12), the former Partridge Family star told fans his "bum middle finger" was hampering his guitar playing.
He explained, "I've been ailing a bit. I fractured my finger and apparently tore some tendons."
At one point in the show he shook hands with a fan in the front row, and joked, "Easy, I only have one good hand left!"
