Shame to end a great concert that way

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"

Yep, he hit his head (left side) first and apparently was seen clutching at it before help reached him.

Don't expect to hear anything for a little while. He's going to need x-rays and most likely a head CT. They take time.
