Am I the only one here who has no idea who the hell this person is?

In Canada, we would have hit him with a snowshoe. Unless it was Nickelback - then it would have been a live grenade.

In the 80's I saw Bruce Dickinson get nailed in the mouth with a boot at the Oakland Colisseum. He promised the audience they would never play there again. They played in San Jose after that.

/He left the stage for 2 or 3 songs.

That's funny. My old man's name is Calvin Harris. He, too, sometimes deserves to get hit in the face with a shoe.

Honestly! Who throws a shoe?

I thought that's how they said hello there. If they're really feeling friendly, you get a headbutt.

Someone was just giving him boots to die in.

Glitchwerks: Approves!

Rock over London! Rock on Chicago! Sam Goody, Goody got it!

In early 90's (possibly late 80's) I saw megadeth at the Rozemont Horizon (I think) and everybody was throwing sod at Dave Mustain. He told us F off and stormed off stage. It was ok, he was opening for Skid Row

Got dealt a blow?
/hehe

I don't know who you are. We've never met, and you're just a name in a Fark thread. I don't even think I've seen your handle before.

But I hate you.

I always hear "Cotton-Eyed Joe" in my head when I see this.

Was he singing "Shoe Fly, Don't Bother Me"?

That shoe looks like little boot

I'd love to see video of this.

I bet he wants to erasure this incident from his memory

Looks like shoe throwing is fast becoming fashionable

Meh. This was better.

Shoe the Shoeless (new window)

TFA: He went down on his knees for maybe 10 seconds, and it looked like he was hurt

It took him 10 seconds to recover? That's pretty supernatural feet
/he should frapp the shoe in gold and hang it on the wall

I thought that was how they said hello in Scotland

Looks like some people in Dundee hate him. He should camouflage himself before leaving hotel
/I think my pun synthesizer overheated

TFA: "But he got up again and told everyone he was all right and started turning it into a joke.

"The people who were supporting him were a bit surprised and the crowd were booing whoever threw the shoe. He kept making a joke about it afterwards and just carried on regardless."

He got over it.

/and no, I have no idea who this is

Would be funnier if the shoe was covered in dog shiat.
