Dave Grohl spills beer, chugs beer, falls off stage

Dave Grohl‘s 2019 didn’t start off with the best of omens, as he fell off the stage during the first Foo Fighters show of the year — though he barely missed a lick.

The sequence of events happened as follows: During a corporate gig in Las Vegas Wednesday, someone in the audience handed Grohl a beer while he was vamping on guitar. Not wanting to stop rocking to drink the beer, Grohl placed the can on a monitor and tried to sip it hands-free while he continued to play guitar.

This led to the beer then spilling all over the amp, so Dave quickly picked it up and chugged the rest — to the crowd’s delight.

On his way back to his bandmates, however, Grohl slipped and fell off the stage. Luckily, he recovered quickly and continued to jam.

You can watch fan-shot footage of the whole thing now on YouTube.

Of course, this isn’t the first time Grohl has lost his footing during a show. Back in 2015, he infamously broke his leg after falling off the stage during a concert in Sweden.

The next show on the Foo Fighters schedule is a performance at the Chris Cornell tribute concert, taking place January 16 in Los Angeles.
