  • The band's twitter is lying about the event as is the music sites that are reporting that it was real.

    Anyone who is suspected of being electructed or hurt in anyway would not be dragged off the stage by one arm!

    ThatCubanGuy, you don't know if you were not there.

  • It had started raining when they were playing and we could hear thunder.

    You can see my hand covering the camera from rain at one point.

    The security called off the show before they started playing Bandages.

    See the guitarist giving a thumbs up as he is getting dragged off, it was all a gag.

see all

  • This was in the news, dumbass.

  • To guitarist (guitarist singers especially). I have no clue whether this incident was real or not. I have no horse in this race of whether this was the real deal or not. What I do know is that it's as rare as winning the "anti-lottery," but it -can- happen. No rain required. Your life, your call. But for me, a little research, a little time, and with a tiny tiny amount of $, you can prevent it from happening, so I personally do.

  • I've been there, done that, guys. I (like this dude) fell to the ground, and my bandmates, like his, acted a little nutty -- due to no fault of their own. The drummer starting kicking my hand, the mic, to get my hand to release while others acted irrationally. Believe what you want.  For guitar player singers, there's a $1 circuit you can put in that minimizes the mayhem, and I understand taylor guitars makes a circuit with a fuse "that fries instead of you." Ask Keith Richards. Be safe.

  • @co9olTechnics So after I got out I wanted to talk to Steve but I didn't know what to say. So I asked him about this and he said it was a faked to get off the stage early and please the crowd. Also they apparently got in some shit for that cause, and I quote "Apparently you can't just do that" lol Best pre concert experience ever!

  • Ok Ok, I'm back to settle this debate. I was there at the concert and saw this and AT THE TIME I thought it was real. Then during Canadian music week I went to see them again at the horseshoe tavern. Anyways before they went on stage I went to the bathroom where low and behold they all were!

  • It's not uncommon for a performer to get a shock when they are wearing a guitar and touch a microphone. The sound industry is notorious for bad electrical practices and it's very hard to teach a sound guy new tricks. (like electrical safety).

  • why isnt there website working??? this all seems fishy to me!

  • He wasn't electrocuted. He survived. It's not the same thing.
