According to a a post by a gig attendee on the other form I hang around, 6 songs into a show in Iowa last night, James took a tumble off the stage- show was stopped and James was taken to hospital. No indication how serious.

must have been one hell of a stage... having that much hair pretty much prevents you from falling-related injuries

I saw them in Berkeley a couple weeks ago and he was jumping all around the edge of the stage, with cape, towel over his head, jumping on speaker monitors.. I thought at the time "this guy's gonna fall off."

I am the old guy in the Obama hat a couple feet from the edge:
