Paisley Falls On Stage, Offers Meet & Greet For Video Footage
Brad Paisley wants to see the video footage of his stage fall. The country star ended his "American Saturday Night" tour with a bang -- literally -- as he took a tumble during the encore of his show Saturday night in Charleston, South Carolina. Later that night he tweeted, quote, "Allright, whoever posts the YouTube footage of it gets a meet and greet. I have got to see it. I hit hard. And I mean freaking hard." Video of the incident shows Paisley on a declining ramp coming back toward center stage when he lost his footing and fell. He quickly got up, unstrapped his guitar, and went to his mic. As his band kept playing, Paisley thanked the crowd, said goodnight, and slapped a few high fives with some fans up front before leaving the stage. "Alcohol" was involved in the incident -- that was the song he was playing when he fell. Afterwards the singer traveled by ambulance to a local hospital. He admits in another late night tweet that he, quote, "really did think I broke a rib or something," but tests showed that he suffered no breaks or fractures. On Sunday Paisley offered an update, tweeting, quote, "Man am I sore today. You guys should see the bruise."
