James Blunt Is Set Upon My Music Lovers
NEWS in the Sun that James Blunt has broken a finger.
The paper sees Blunt “launching himself from the stage into a sea of rampaging fans” at a concert in Ashville, North Carolina.
Anorak sees it all. Blunt prepares to stage dive. The mob forms. Hands are raised invitingly. Ready to surf on a wave of love, Blunt jumps.
And at once the crowd parts. Ex-Army man Blunt is left to freefall to the ground, sans parachute.
Says he: “I don’t know what made me do it. I jumped off stage at the end and was chased by women, and men, in the crowd.
“I started running, and the next thing I knew I had broken my finger. I don’t even know how I did it. I can’t play the piano but I can still play the guitar with my remaining fingers!”
Better luck next time, music fans…
