As the title says, Phil collapsed at the end of Halo in Sonisphere, Pori, and is carried off stage.
He suffers from a rare heart condition called cardiogenic syncope (which means that the heart sometimes fails to pump enough blood to the brain, resulting in the sufferer blacking out).

He got up after a while and walked off fine, but they couldn't continue the set =(

  • 3 times, in 6 years, I'd say the fact that MH don't kick him out just because of an unfortunate heart condition says something about how good a band, and team they are really!

  • rob looks pissed!

  • @xxcannibalxchristian i couldn't have said it any better, and Machine Head are so loyal to their fans.

  • now that's true dedication from the fans, unlike anywhere else where people would bitch and complain.

  • @innerblades gotta be the awesomeness! saw them at mayhem (it was 110 degrees out) and I myself almost passed out lol that sucks balls though that he has this condition, I myself always worry about my heart, (keep getting weird palpatations and all that but nothing too serious) and it must suck knowing that you cant keep playing music because of it

  • @metalmachine00 heart condition

  • @HookerWithAPenis92

    well said

  • True fans clap at these situations. Just goes to show you how understanding we are

  • @SixxHundredSixtySixx

    yeah, its weird.:S

  • It sucks that it happens while during a set. But I'm sure the crowd understood.
