Country musician Gavin Adcock did not let a tumble off stage interrupt his show at Winnipeg’s Burton Cummings Theatre on Wednesday, continuing to perform even as he fell into the crowd.
The incident happened while Adcock was performing his song “Deep End.” Fan video captured the shirtless singer losing his footing as he leaned toward the audience, sending him over the edge of the stage.
Despite the unexpected fall, Adcock maintained his composure, continuing to sing without missing a beat. He even kept hold of his bottle of whiskey during the tumble, though his cowboy hat didn’t survive the journey.
When later asked about the mishap on social media, Adcock took it in stride, commenting simply, “it happens.”
Fans praised the performer’s quick recovery online.
“And he was still rocking it out, what a legend,” wrote one admirer, while another commented, “Great recovery, didn’t miss a beat!”
Such stage mishaps aren’t unusual in country music.
Similar incidents have befallen other performers, including Luke Bryan, who once tripped over a fan’s cellphone, and Darius Rucker, who fell after stumbling on a monitor during a Charleston performance, Parade noted.
This is not the only time Adcock has made headlines recently.
He was involved in a publicized confrontation with fellow country star Zach Bryan at a festival. Addressing the incident on Instagram, Adcock wrote, “I’ve already said, ‘I don’t think Zach Bryan is a very good person.’ He wasn’t locked out of the festival. He had been there all day with his multiple security guards.”
In a separate incident, Adcock shared footage of security quickly removing a fan who rushed the stage during his Wichita, Kansas, performance, Parade said. He posted the video with the caption, “What happens when you jump the barricade at a country music concert.”
