Yesterday's KROQ Weenie Roast in Los Angeles was a particularly eventful one. During '90s alt-pop veterans Garbage's set, while they were playing "Special," frontwoman Shirley Manson ended up stumbling off the stage and into the audience. Fortunately, she recovered amazingly well, playing it off and continuing to perform the song in the middle of the crowd:
Holy fuck she fell off stage!! #garbage #weenieroast #kroqweenieroast #shirleymansion

But that wasn't the day's only mishap. Mere hours before Red Hot Chili Peppers were scheduled to perform, frontman Anthony Kiedis was rushed to the hospital. According to Billboard, the singer was taken from the venue in an ambulance after he starting experiencing "extreme stomach pain." The rest of the band took the stage to announce that they wouldn't be able to perform, and Weezer ended up closing out the show. Blink-182 also stepped in to give a surprise performance.
