The show must go on - that's what they say, right? As we know though, it's not always the case with artists, who occasionally cancel shows due to illness, weather issues or something entirely private.

But Sydney producer What So Not showed us the total opposite this week when he suffered a concussion on stage at Texas's Ubbi Dubbi Festival but kept playing anyway, despite the fact he couldn't remember how to select play on a track.

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Yesterday was one of the harder sets of my life. . I smacked my head on a low hanging LED wall climbing on stage. It immediately put me to the floor, but I didn’t realize anything was that serious until moments later I couldn’t figure out how to select what to play. . We worked out pretty quick I’d concussed myself, but decided id deal with it after the set. . It was a bazaar experience. Despite jumping around & smiling through it, I almost sat down & just gave up a couple times. . Took a minute to sit & chill & ice my head once I was done. Was still a little confused for a few hours but eventually cleared up. . Sorry to anyone at @ubbidubbifest if the show was a little off? I think it was alright, but can’t remember it too well ha.. . All is good & well today. Still an amazing weekend of shows. See u all soon . @ubbidubbifest @rukes @ohdagyo

As YourEDM reports, the producer was heading on stage to play his set when he smacked his head on a low-hanging LED wall display. As expected, he copped himself a concussion from it, though he only realised when "moments later I couldn’t figure out how to select what to play".

"We worked out pretty quick I’d concussed myself, but decided I'd deal with it after the set ... Despite jumping around & smiling through it, I almost sat down & just gave up a couple times. Took a minute to sit & chill & ice my head once I was done. Was still a little confused for a few hours but eventually cleared up."

And in total legend fashion, he kept the show going with punters not knowing what had just happened, adding an apology "if the show was a little off". 

What a guy.
