sorry i have nothing to contribute to this thread.

SpacemanSpiff:
The singer of The Hope Conspiracy apparently hurt several people at the show I was at (some were bleeding from their face, one looked like his nose was broken or something, I don't know) and he also hit equipment (lighting and stuff) with his microphone. But I'm not quite sure whether those were accidents. ... Coming to think of it, I think he did all of that on purpose.

One of North of America's guitar players' contact lenses suddenly slipped during a song and apparenly really hurt his eyes. But he couldn't stop playing, so at the end of the song, he was crying (well, tears were coming from his eyes because of the irritation the contact lenses caused). Then they dropped to the floor and he had to play the rest of the show blindly (his glasses had been lost in accident earlier on when their tour bus had caught fire).
Then, at the same show, two guitar straps simply fell apart which also caused mayhem.

My boyfriend was watching the Cooper Temple Clause perform at T in The Park 2 years ago and got hit in the head with an empty beer can which the lead singer threw into the audience. He wasn't a happy bunny.

Damn. I saw the Cooper Temple Clause at the Curiosa Festival last August, and some kid banged his head into a chair on the way down to watch them (It was like in this really small theatre thing off to the side of the big stadium at the Home Depot Center in Carson, CA.)

They must be bad luck with getting painful stuff.

lies ...

but back to the topic , it wasnt at a festival but God Forbid did the best bit of crowd safety work i've ever seen a band do.
while opening for machine head the singer vanished into the front of the crowd (the crush bit between pit & barrier) and immerged with a very limp looking girl who had passed out and vanished under the crowd.
it was very awesome of him.

iv seen hell is for heroes do it too at a much smaller gig, someone passed out hanging onto the barrier and will (guitar) and justin (vocals) pulled her over the barrier while the guard was caught off , erm, guard by the whole thing.
