Smart Studios in Madison hit by runaway backhoe.

The studio, owned by producer Butch Vig (drummer for the band Garbage) suffered around $50,000 worth of damage in this heinous attack.

Fortunately, the lovely Smart Studios' website came away unscathed.

Several alternative rock luminaries have recorded at the studio, including Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, and Killdozer.
