Bring Me the Horizon frontman Oli Sykes has shared an update after he was hit by a phone during the band's show in St. Louis on Monday.
As previously reported, fan-shot footage from the show showed a phone striking Sykes toward the end of performing the track "Happy Song" after seemingly being thrown by someone in the audience.
"Alright everyone - just wanted to let you know I'm all good," Sykes writes in an Instagram Story posted Tuesday. "The phone to the head definitely smarted [hurt] and I ended up with a mild concussion, but the swelling's gone down a decent amount already."
According to Setlist.fm, Bring Me's set Monday consisted of 16 songs, as opposed to the usual 17 they've been playing on their ongoing U.S. tour.
"Last night I was struggling a bit on stage afterwards because singing was putting a lot of pressure on the wound and making things feel a bit disorienting while performing," Sykes' post reads. "So I'm sorry on my part for what may of seemed like a half hearted performance."
Sykes also thanks everyone for checking in on him and says "everything should be fine" for the next show on the tour, set for Tuesday in Kansas City, Missouri.

The book, titled Hello Boys and Girls!, is due out Nov. 10 in the U.S.

McBrain says in a statement. "I am blessed to be able to finally share my path to where I am today, in my own words, with the world."

The American Idol season 24 finale Monday featured performances from Shinedown and Mötley Crüe.
Shinedown was joined by contestant Philmon Lee for a medley of the band's songs "Searchlight" and "Second Chance."

Mötley, meanwhile, rocked "Home Sweet Home" and "Kickstart My Heart" alongside past American Idol winner and current judge Carrie Underwood. Underwood previously recorded "Home Sweet Home" to be the farewell song for American Idol season 8.
The finale also featured contestants Jake Thistle and Jesse Findling joining Blues Traveler and Gin Blossoms for renditions of their respective songs "Hook" and "Hey Jealousy."
The winner of American Idol season 24 is Hannah Harper.

Bring Me the Horizon frontman Oli Sykes was hit with a phone seemingly thrown from someone in the crowd during the band's show in St. Louis on Monday.
Fan-shot footage shows the phone striking Sykes toward the end of a rendition of the track "Happy Song."
"Who the f*** just threw a phone at my f****** head?" Sykes said before tossing the phone to what appears to be security near the front of the stage.
Sykes continued on with the show, though as Setlist.fm notes, Bring Me cut one song out of the set, performing 16 tracks instead of the usual 17 they've been playing on their ongoing U.S. tour.
Bring Me the Horizon's tour is scheduled to continue Tuesday in Kansas City, Missouri.
On their single "Drag Me," From Ashes to New started from slightly above the bottom, now they're here very much at the bottom.
"Maybe you're not at the best place, but you're not necessarily in a bad place," vocalist Danny Case tells ABC Audio of the message of "Drag Me." "And then it's like, boom, you get dragged down."
"That's usually how, I think, tragedy strikes," Case continues. "You're just kinda going about your life, you're going about your day, and then, boom, something bad happens and you're in the bottom."
Ironically, "Drag Me" has now risen to the very top of the Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, giving From Ashes to New their first #1 on a Billboard radio chart. They previously peaked at #2 with the song "Barely Breathing."
"We don't necessarily write to try and make #1 radio rock songs," Case says. "But if it does happen organically, I think that's just a testament to how good the songs are."
In addition to hearing "Drag Me" on the radio, you can hear it as the opening track on the new From Ashes to New album, Reflections.
"I think the song tonally, metaphorically, everything, sets the album up really nicely," Case says.
Reflections is out now. From Ashes to New is currently on tour with Black Veil Brides and will hit the road with Shinedown in July.

Billy Corgan has announced a European tour dubbed A Night of Mellon Collie and Infinite Sadness.
The trek, which launches September in London, will celebrate the 1995 Smashing Pumpkins album, Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, "on the grandest scale possible."
"Opera and rock both tell stories of heightened emotions," Corgan writes in a Facebook post. "I am excited for both fans of my music and traditional opera fans to hear some truly inspired work; for the balance here is to honor both traditions in a magisterial way."
The tour will also make stops in Antwerp, Belgium; Paris and Madrid. For the full list of dates and all ticket info, visit SmashingPumpkins.com.
Melon Collie and the Infinite Sadness marked the third Pumpkins album and spawned the singles "Bullet with Butterfly Wings," "1979," "Tonight, Tonight" and "Zero." It's been certified Diamond by the RIAA, signifying 10 million units certified.
Corgan similarly celebrated Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness in 2025 with a run of shows at the Lyric Opera House in his hometown of Chicago.

In February, Skid Row launched a call to audition to be the band's next singer after parting ways with vocalist Erik Grönwall in 2024. Speaking with ABC Audio, bassist Rachel Bolan shares an update on the singer search.
"We got well over 320, 350 [submissions], something like that," Bolan says. "We're still taking submissions, checking people out, but we have a few people we're gonna bring in, get in a room with and jam and see how that goes."
"We just have to find the exact person for the gig," he adds. "And we'll go from there."
Skid Row thought they might've had that person in Halestorm frontwoman Lzzy Hale, who handled lead vocals for a run of live shows following Grönwall's departure.
"Before the last show [Hale] did with us, I said, 'You know what I'm gonna ask you after this show, right?'" Bolan recalls. "She was, like, 'I know.' And I go, 'Yeah, we'll talk about it later.' But she's so busy with Halestorm, that would be awesome if she could do both bands."
Meanwhile, some fans may be wondering why Skid Row doesn't just get back together with Sebastian Bach, who sang in the band's classic lineup before leaving in 1996.
"If we wanted to, we would've already," Bolan says.
While Skid Row's singer search continues, Bolan is preparing to release his debut solo album, Gargoyle of the Garden State, on June 12.

It appears reports of Greta Van Fleet's demise have been greatly exaggerated.
The "Highway Tune" rockers have shared a video of themselves jamming together in the studio alongside the caption, "We're back, baby!"
The clip is surely a relief for fans after Greta posted a mysterious video earlier in the week called "Thanks for the Wild Ride" featuring archival footage from throughout the band's history. Given the title and reflective nature of the video, some fans were worried that it meant GVF was breaking up.
Now, though, it seems that whole thing was an elaborate tease, and new Greta Van Fleet music is on the way.
The most recent Greta Van Fleet album is 2023's Starcatcher.
The track has nothing to do with the musical Little Shop of Horrors, and instead finds the "Lydia" rockers commenting on the the Israel-Gaza war.
"Big Shop of Horrors" marks the third new Highly Suspect single of 2026, following "Yellow Roses" and "Wasted." The band's most recent album is 2024's As Above, So Below.
Highly Suspect will launch a U.S. headlining tour May 17 in Madison, Wisconsin.

Dogstar has premiered a new song called "This Sphere," a track off the Keanu Reeves-featuring band's upcoming album, All in Now.
"The music just had that rolling rhythm, and I didn't want to distract from that," frontman Bret Domrose says of "This Sphere." "So, I basically started playing what Keanu was playing because that's what the song wants – that pull, that rhythm. Then it opens up in the chorus and gives you a break."
"It’s a fun ride, that song. Very fun," Reeves adds.
You can watch the video for "This Sphere" streaming now on YouTube.
All in Now is due out May 29. It's the follow-up to 2023's Somewhere Between the Power Lines and Palm Trees, which marked the first Dogstar album in over 20 years.
Dogstar will launch a U.S. headlining tour in August.
