Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.
David Bowie was forced to halt a concert in Oslo when a member of the audience hurled a lollipop at him halfway thorough his set. The rouge confectionary reportedly his Bowie directly in the eye, temporarily blinding him.
The gig on Saturday (19 June) was already blighted by extreme storms, with Bowie being forced to wear a bright yellow cagoule onstage.
20 minutes into the gig, a member of the audience threw a lollipop at the singer, which (according to The Sun) hit him directly in the eye. Bowie then “winced in agony as the stick shot between his left eyeball and its lid� halting the gig, before a roadie removed the offending piece of confectionary.
The Sun quotes one fan as saying, "He [Bowie] grabbed a mike and called the person responsible a coward and b*****d for hiding in the crowd. Everyone booed as the concert was stopped."
However a statement on Bowie’s official website claims a different story altogether, saying,
“I'm sure there was no malice intended, but yesterday's incident could have been far more serious than it was. However, in typical Bowie fashion, and despite his understandable initial anger, David made light of the incident when he threw a plectrum into the crowd and then said he would have to go and hide in the band as he thought he may have got somebody in the eye.�
Mind you thats not as bad as when someone threw a bottle of p!ss at Faith No More, Mike Patton picked it up and drank it At least the lolly would have tested nicer
"And when you start to think about death, you start to think about what's after it. And then you start hoping there is a God. For me, it's a frightening thought to go nowhere".

i read that story when I was on Mallorca. The story said that he was badly injured. Maybe blind on one eye. I forgot about it until I read it here. So he wasn't badly injured then?
