The Enemy frontman loses fingertip on stage

The Enemy's Tom Clarke cut the end of his finger mid-set at Lollapalooza, forcing cancellation of an Osheaga show before he played the LA Troubadour.

The Enemy certainly made a lasting impression with their first ever US show at Lollapalooza at the weekend. Frontman Tom Clarke managed to slice off the end of his finger mid-set. He received medical treatment and the band cancelled their appearance at the Osheaga festival in Montreal on Tuesday, but were back on stage again on Wednesday night at the Troubadour in LA.

Clarke told the NME: "I managed to slash the end off my finger playing guitar there was fucking blood everywhere. The doctor looked at it after the set and said I'd have to miss a couple of gigs. I said I'd miss one but I'm not missing LA. I don't really care if my finger's pissing blood - it's not the end of the world, it's an occupational hazard".
