This is 100% rock and roll. He didn’t stop singing.

[@magnusindridason8368]

They played a gig in Switzerland many years ago, Pelle tripped and fell from the stage. He still finished the show even though he don’t remember much of it.

I admire this more than words can express. Rock on The Hives

[@benfinesilver2250]

[@aaronsnegon67]

It doesn't get much more punk than that. Awesome!

[@Evan-Loftus]

[@eakzor]

damn they went all in on the bogus operandi theatricals

[@mungofinalfi4480]

...And it happened during the song straight after Bogus Operandi, haha.

[@thenamelessavenger]

Couldn't tell unless you were watching. Didn't miss a beat!

[@Kim_Darkman]

The Hives makes rock 'N' roll dangerous again!! 😎✌

[@captainshiner42]

Ehh, no, boomer.

[@beedubree2550]

i saw them live in a tiny 400-capacity venue in Bristol two days before this, first time i'd seen them live and it is by orders of magnitude the best live performance I have ever been to

[@stevemuzak8526]

Imagine any pop star in that situation. They would cancel the whole tour😂

[@pequenoblackyblue7687]

What a legend

[@aquariumanalytic754]

A real headbanger…

[@DJChipsandGarlic]

And Pelle: ¡¿WHYYY MEE!?

[@bya22666]

[@tendency82]

He'll never stop, haha!

[@MeatVision]

Best frontman in the world in the last 10 years

[@sadpopfran7684]

legendary

[@bipolarewok]

Did he really hit himself tho? I mean, he could've been hit by one of those ninjas and there would be no way to know.

[@kencall4460]

he blamed it on his brother who stepped on his cable

[@literallyunderrated]

This rocks so hard!

[@indievinyl4268]

💯

[@junlimited]

This is like the Zapruder film. For years people will analyse it and ask: Did Nicholaus Arson step on the cable on purpose?

[@dieseldown]

It was a Boom! Mic.

[@ReeseChown]

These dudes don't give a fuck! 🤘

[@captainshiner42]

Looks like the mic was the main offender the whole time.

[@experi-mentalproductions5358]

I don't know who this is, but he has my respect. Imagine Bieber in this situation...

[@montymax208]

Bieber 🤣🤣🤣 But seriously: if you don’t know The Hives, check them out. Best live band. Ever. Promise. 😉

[@Membrillo81]

He's one of a hell frontman.

[@doctorrobert1339]

Man Bieber lives rent free in your heads lol

[@ReeseChown]

​@@doctorrobert1339He was public enemy no 1 from 2008-13. It was all out war on the internet

[@experi-mentalproductions5358]

@@doctorrobert1339 No, he's just the poster child for modern commercial music, I could have named anyone else, he just happens to be the one most likely to burst out crying if a plastic bottle is thrown at him.

[@BLOCPARTY420]

Sad but cool 😂

[@johnrushingvt]

What song is this?
