Frank Zappa @ The Rainbow Theatre, London, 1971 – Just a week after having his equipment stolen at show in Switzerland, worse things were around the corner. During the encore of the triumphant London show, a deranged fan pushed Zappa into the concrete-floored orchestra pit. His band immediately thought he was dead, but ultimately he was left with hideous injuries including a crushed larynx, head trauma, serious fractures and injuries to his back, leg and neck. He was wheelchair bound for a year-and-a-half.
