VIDEO: Smashing Pumpkins’ Billy Corgan Faints During Concert


NOTE: Attempting to watch this video can cause unnecessary headaches. (I am living proof of that.)

During a concert last night in Tampa, Florida, Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan became the latest musician to take a fall while on stage. The singer was in the middle of performing “Bullet With Butterfly Wings” when he briefly smashed to the floor.

You can see the moment at around the :19 mark in the clip.

Despite Corgan’s quick recovery, he doesn’t remember the incident. “And for those that saw me fall last night during Bullet, that wasn’t a stage move or clumsiness, that was me blacking out and wiping out,” he tweeted. “I have no memory of falling against the drum riser and my guitar cabinet, but I can tell you I’ve got quite a good bruise + am moving slow.”

Although no explanation was given for the fall, Billy and the band have no plans to postpone any dates on their current tour. Next up: a concert tonight in Knoxville, TN.
