Six Nation State‘s bassist John Maskell has been hopping after a freak accident at their album launch gig at the Borderline on Tuesday night.
After crowd surfing barefoot, Maskell landed back on the stage and stood on a broken wine glass, slicing a 7 inch cut into his foot severing 2 tendons. A nurse in the audience tended to the wound whilst Maskell finished the set, before he was rushed to hospital where he underwent surgery to repair the damage.
SNS will draft in a replacement for their Winchester and Swansea shows, but Maskell should be back on his feet within 10 days – and hopefully will wear shoes at the next gig…
