Accidents at live shows

[Jevil]

Did you ever have one?

Karma punished me.

Some weeks ago I was watching live accidents on stage (there are plenty) on Youtube and laughing out loud.

2 weeks ago I experienced myself. I felt to the ground just in the end of the show in front of 3.000 people... it was ridiculous... I had my wrist in pain for some days.

"El mas idiota es para..." hahahaha

Luckily I've never suffered some of that, but my old bandmates have suffered from me, when I was a young reckless fucker I used to hit bandmates in the face with my bass and step on their pedals when jumping

When I went to see Soilwork a few years back, one of the opening bands was Darkest Hour. I didn't care much for them, but I was near the stage because Soilwork was up next... mistake.

The singer bursts out with "THIS NEXT SONG IS GETTING FUCKED OVER BY A COP!", and before I can fully absorb the massive amounts of originality so naturally passed to the audience some scene kid gets up on stage and jumps into a nice, open area next to me. As usual, I had a few feet of breathing room around me (this even happens at concerts, and I still don't know why)... but just about every other place he could have jumped had enough people to support his stage dive, and he jumps at me.

Needless to say, he hit the ground. I took a short step to the side, looked at him, chuckled a bit, and hoped the set would be over soon. (It wasn't...)

I have a funny stage dive story..

Basically in Houston at some club, (Not JavaJazz)
Emmure was playing and the bass player from Oceano was hounding me to stage dive as he already had and we had been joking about it. So Emmure is raging it up as usual, and a breakdown comes up.

The floor is packed at this point and it was a small venue with kids right against the stage. So I got the nerve, emptied my pockets and went full throttle from the back of the stage. I dove with all my might and my fat ass went flying out like 10ft or so into a crowd of scene teens, and as I descended into the abyss, I could see faces of terror as my shadow went over them like independence day.

I basically knocked 10 kids down and hit the ground almost immediately. I ran through the crowd because a bunch of kids were fuckin heated that I ruined their little dance party haha.

I was shredding the riffz and my hair gut stuck in the tuners.. at the same time our singer came by and put his arm around me, and got his hair stuck in my tuners!
I had to stop playing for a brief moment to tear our hair out of the tuners so that it wouldnt be a total screwup!

The singer in my really old band fucked up his leg at a show by jumping up and having his foot land half way on and off the stage, he fell and his leg was fucked up real good. We had good insurance thankfully.

My old band was playing a Halloween show for WNNJ out of New Jersey, and at one point some very scantily clad flamboyantly gay dude got right in front of the singer (who's terribly homophobic) and started wiggling this 12" dildo in his face. He kept moving from one side of the stage to the other trying to get away from him, but captain rubber cock just kept following him. I was laughing so hard I started crying, which mixed with the gunk in the air from the fog machine, and I slipped right off of the stage. Luckily it wasn't a very high stage and I landed on my feet...but it was one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life.

No joke, a woman from the crowd grabbed said dildo, and then took off by the bathrooms never to be seen again for the rest of the night.

hair stuck in tuners, a classic. Luckily never happened to me, although I have witnessed it happen to friends a lot. I remember this keyboard player chick who got her huge ball of hair stuck in the projection screen behind her. Two dudes had to get on stage and help her while she was playing, t'was funny

Jeff Broll sings in your band?

Oh yeah, i had my accidents as well :

-A while ago i managed to hit my kneecap at full speed with a 2B size drumstick (and believe me, i hit drums like i mean it) Couldn't walk normal for the rest of the week. I did the whole gig with agonising pain, that's a bitch when playing 200bpm double bass.
-Almost poked out my own eye with a drumstick.
-Hit myself really fucking hard with a drumstick.
-Cutting my hand on a rim on the tomshell during a drumroll, bleeding like a pig.

And more like a quote, a while ago at a pretty large gig, some loser in the crowd kept screaming "SSSSLLLAAAAAAYYYYYYYYEEEEEERRRRRRR!!" during the whole set. When he wasn't done screaming after 30 minutes i just threw a drumstick at full speed in his face, that kept him quiet for the rest of the time.

I guess they didn't call me Animal for nothing
