Knocked Out! at Reading Festival

Posted by MEGAN SELING at 02:05 PM

I have no idea how I missed this story, but months ago, during this summer’s Reading Festival, the lead singer of Panic! at the Disco was knocked out by a bottle launched from the crowd.

Ouch!

NME reports on it here. He was out for a few minutes, but then got up and finished the set.

It’s no secret that I hate Panic! at the Disco, and I know some of you Line Out readers feel the same way, so I just had to share. And while I certainly don’t condone giving head injuries to shitty bands, knowing he’s okay makes it a little bit funny. But just a little bit! Or maybe I’m just an asshole.

Apparently My Chemical Romance were also under attack during their festival set, but the band members managed to escape any injuries.
