Kaiser Chiefs frontman Ricky Wilson collapsed on Sunday at the close of the band's appearance at the Birmingham leg of the NME Rock N Roll Riot tour, presumably as a result of being a bit too energetic (he tore ligaments in his ankle earlier in the year due to all of that jumping around he does). The group had just finished their set at the event, held at the Birmingham Academy, when the singer fainted after rushing off stage. A source told NME.com: "He got knackered and flaked out. There was first aid at the side of the stage and they gave him some water and then he was bright as a button two minutes later."
A witness who posted on the band's official website said: "He did literally just collapse and Nick (Hodgson - drummer) poured a bottle of water over his head and he still didn't get up."
