Gallows and a cracked head

Ow, ow, ow: Gallows' gig in Stoke last night ended in blood, mother, blood when Frank Carter cracked his head open. He'd been mucking about with a fan who'd run on stage when the sort of dire warning your Mum used to shout came true. The band limped on while Carter went to hospital, but eventually the gig was abandoned.

Carter - after a spot of vinegar and brown paper - is expected to recover for the rest of the tour.
