It's crazy that he's still shredding on his way down! lol, that's dedication. "Oh shit I'm passing out, must continue soloing!"
-
*sigh* still remember this like it was yesterday! I sound old haha xD poor Phil!!! <3
-
Why do people take the mick outta this, seriously? It's a severe heart condition. Search Wiki if you're actually a MH fan.. which most appear to be anyway :)
From what I know, indeed my friend has this condition, he has a pacemaker that kicks in when he collapses to keep him alive. Without it he'd be dead. So get a grip, it's a miracle that he can still perform. Get behind the guy!

@joedude91 Na he was just shreading to hard and God said he couln't take it anymore so he made him pass out.

The best part of a Machine Head is placing bets on which song Phil will collapse during.

@Messiah73 Yeah, it is good that they stand by him despite his condition. I'm not sure that every band would want to have the possibilty of something like that happening because the next time could very well be the last. Most bands would either fire him or have him announce his "retirement". Hell, it's good of HIM to keep going despite his condition. It takes a lot of guts for the guy to go out onstage every night, knowing that there's a good chance that something may happen to him.

Always during Halo... I guess this song is literally mindblowing ...
-
Does Halo mean something special for him????....He always falls during that song xD
-
@LordShikarii Υeah indeed :-)
I say good on the band for standing by him. Shows what loyalty within a band is all about and what metal is all about! No real metalhead would laugh at this. Respect to the dude for going out there knowing he could drop at any time, that's fucking balls, that's metal!

He faints due to a heart condition he got after the stress of his father passing away.
So don't take the piss lol.
