Antony Blue Goes Red In The Face!

13 June 2002

Blue's Antony Costa (far right in the attached photo) had to be pulled away from a young 'fan' after being hit in the head with a bottle at a recent concert in the UK.

Blue were set to play Leeds University's Summer Ball, but fans became angry after the band appeared onstage much later than their official arrival time of 12.30am

By the time Blue took the stage, most of the crowd was drunk and became angry when they discovered that the band were miming most of their songs.

"Everyone started to boo when they realised the band were miming," one fan told the UK's Sun newspaper. "That's when the beer started getting thrown around and then the bottles - one of which hit Antony on the head."

Twenty-one-year-old Antony then jumped into the crowd to confront the fan, despite his bandmates' attempts to stop him. The bottle thrower was then removed by security.
