In the last few minutes, Rocksins.com has just seen a video doing the rounds on Facebook of Emmure’s singer Frankie Palmeri getting electrocuted on stage as the band was playing a show tonight in Russia. The clip, which shows the band playing in Russia, get through about two minutes of a song before Palmeri collapses and hits the stage. The fan filmed video can be seen below:

Thankfully Palmeri was ok but Emmure cut the rest of their performance (understandably) following the incident. Emmure’s guitarist Mike Mulholland commented on the incident on Twitter afterwards, sending out the following pair of Tweets:
“I’m so sorry to all of our Moscow fans who came to see us tonight, the stage was unsafe and electrocuted @FrankiePalmeri. We will make it up.”
“He will be ok but the stage wasn’t wired safely & shocked the shit out of him. A sad day for us but we’ll make it up.”
If there are any further updates from the Emmure camp on this matter we’ll aim to bring them to you here at Rocksins.com.
