Fall Out Boy guitarist Joe Trohman had a lucky escape last week after his hair caught fire during one of the band’s live performances.
The incident happened as the band performed at Madison Square Garden last Friday (December 14th) - where they were playing on the same bill as Avril Lavigne and Timbaland.
Writing on his blog, Trohman said that the sheer volume of pyrotechnics onstage were to blame for the accident.
"There was so much pyrotechnics on stage that I lit my hair on fire," he said. "Which in turn made me feel the power that the gods of rock bestowed upon us, and I proceeded to head bang."
