Metal fan injured by sheep’s head
A flying sheep’s head hit a concertgoer and fractured his skull at a concert of Norwegian metal band Mayhem.
The band, part of Norway’s death-metal music scene, was carving up a dead sheep as part of its stage act when the animal’s head flew off lead singer Maniac’s knife and struck 25-year-old Per Kristian Hagen.
Hagen was recovering this week after the incident last Thursday in Bergen, 302 miles west of Oslo. He has filed involuntary assault and battery charges against the band.
