Tour's been tough for Rage Against the Machine lately. First, Zach de la Rocha injured his leg on stage in Chicago earlier this month, forcing him to perform the rest of the band's long-awaited reunion tour sitting down. And now, Tom Morello took a tumble of his own in Toronto after being accidentally tackled by a security guard who was chasing down a stage-crashing fan.
As you'll see in a clip of the incident below, the guard was in hot pursuit of the stage crasher when he smashed into Morello, knocking the guitarist (and the crasher) off stage while the band played "Killing in the Name."
De la Rocha stopped the performance briefly to be sure that Morello was all good, and after he'd climbed back to his post, the band continued on with the show. A solid reminder to stay off the stage unless a performer invites you up, lest you end up being the reason your hero gets wrecked and decked at their own show.
Check out the accidental tackle below.
