\u201cWho the f\u2014 just threw a phone at my f\u2014in\u2019 head? You f\u2014in\u2019 tosser,\u201d Sykes shouted to the audience while crouched at the front of the stage picking up the phone, in a moment caught on a fan video<\/a>.<\/p>\n Despite the injury, Sykes finished the show, though the band cut \u201cYOUtopia\u201d from the set and he did not enter the crowd during \u201cDrown\u201d as he usually does.<\/p>\n \u201cAlright everyone \u2013 just wanted to let you know I\u2019m all good.\u201d Sykes wrote in an Instagram Story after the incident.<\/p>\n \u201cThe phone to the head definitely smarted and I ended up with a mild concussion, but the swelling\u2019s gone down a decent amount already.<\/p>\n \u201cLast night I was struggling a bit on stage afterwards because singing was putting a lot of pressure on the wound and making things feel a bit disorienting while performing, so I\u2019m sorry on my part for what may of seemed like a half-hearted performance.<\/p>\n \u201cWho the f\u2014 just threw a phone at my f\u2014in\u2019 head? You f\u2014in\u2019 tosser,\u201d Sykes shouted to the audience. @Sakiika_vv\/X<\/p>\n Sykes said afterwards that he struggled on stage as singing put pressure on his head wound. @Sakiika_vv\/X<\/p>\n \u201cAppreciate everyone checking in and worrying about me though \ud83d\udda4 Everything should be fine for tonight\u2019s gig.\u201d<\/p>\n
