Gallows singer splits head open at Stoke gig

Gallows singer Frank Carter split his head open after falling at a gig in Stoke, finishing the song before going to A&E and the band's set being cut short.

After the rather non-event Gallows story that we published last week, it's good to see UK punk band Gallow providing us with some quality news content this time round. Indeed, it's a story that has all the trimmings - with their lead singer, Frank Carter, having split his head open at a gig in, of all places, Stoke. The frontman, who is becoming relatively well known for his excitable exploits, was forced to cut the gig short after crashing to the ground after fans piled onstage, sending him tumbling. Not that he finished mid-song or anything, mind. Nope, Carter - true to punk tradition - completed the song he was on with blood gushing from his head before announcing: "I'm off to A&E now". Carter's brother then stepped up to the mic for two songs, but the band couldn't continue minus their front man and left the stage soon after.
