Former Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher has had quite the weekend. After completing his headline set at Isle of Wight Festival in the UK, the English singer sustained some pretty gruesome injuries during a helicopter mishap some distance from the Seaclose Park venue.
Life is precious let’s make it happen I’m not messing about we only get to do it once I’m coming in a mess I’m going out in style c’mon you know I have no time for balloon 🎈 knots

In what might be the most perilous of post-show rituals, Gallagher allegedly fell 30 kilometres (or so he joked) from the helicopter, and later documented his battle scars online while reassuring fans that he’s recovering well.

You’d think that falling out of a helicopter might take a little bit of the wind out of your sails, but Gallagher’s post-accident Tweetstorm suggests that he’s in good spirits (and probably on good meds). Licking his wounds with a well-earned beer and wisecracking that his bandaged face will serve as an upcoming album cover, it’s safe to assume that the Oasis alum is enjoying what he calls some “RnR.”
