Can any Russian XLTers tell me what's happened to him? All I've been able to make out is that he's in hospital with serious gunshot wounds to the head. Haven't been able to discover anything else... thanks.

Gany, you obviously mean Alexei Serov?
he was found unconscious and severely beaten downtown Moscow on Monday after being missing for two days. they took him to the hospital, where he was kept in intensive care for a while. now he's a bit better. he regained consciousness, but his condition is still reported as serious. (he got head injuries, brain concussion and broken ribs... no gunshot wound was confirmed, btw)
there are several versions considered by police. according to the one of them, Alexei was beaten by robbers, who attacked him and stole his mercedes. but some sources say the accident has something to do with Alexei's conflict with the band's manager...
anyways, hope the guy gets better soon. i've never really cared for Diskoteka Avaria's music (they're just one of those pop-bands popular among Russian teenagers), but they've always seemed to be really nice and unpretentious guys, with a great sense of humor... especially Alexei.

Ah, well the article I originally saw on bbcrussian.com called him Sergei -- Alexei must be his better-known nickname. The article also used the phrase "s ognestrel'nym raneniem" which I translated as "with firearm wounds".
I think my interest in this story is an example of the principle that pop-music doesn't seem as idiotic when it's in another language!
Blagodaryu Vas!
