Mark E. Smith Performs in Wheelchair, Is Tougher Than You

3:51 p.m. · April 2, 2009 · by Matthew Blackwell

Here's your daily reminder that Mark E. Smith is not only crazier than you, but tougher than you as well. After breaking his hip several weeks ago (a decidedly unpunk thing to do), Mark E. Smith decided Tuesday night that the show must go on, and he played at Cambridge in his wheelchair (an extremely punk thing to do). No word on how the performance went, but I would have loved to see him roll out of his chair in order to crowdsurf. [NME]
