Andy Knapp, the singer of Snot, is recuperating from a “significant leg injury” sustained on June 12th during an unsuccessful stage dive, as per theprp. Knapp was hurt as he tried to dive into the crowd during the band’s performance at The Live Rooms in Chester, England, but ended up landing between the stage and a barricade. Guitarist Mikey Doling, a member of his band, posted the following on social media regarding the issue. The band was able to perform on June 13, at this year’s annual “Download Festival” in Donington, UK, in spite of the setback. In 2024, Snot made a comeback and signed Knapp as their most recent successor for Lynn Strait. They have been touring and writing and recording new music in recent months.
Last night’s performance in Chester, England was off the fkn chain! The crowd was fkn into it! The entire room was singing along with Andy, and we were levitating from their infectious fired up enthusiasm. I’d like to thank the British fans for their tremendous support.
Unfortunately, Andy‘s stage dive into the crowd ended in an accident, and he fell between the stage and the barricade, causing a significant leg injury. Thankfully, X-rays didn’t reveal a break, but he will have a substantial hematoma. Despite this setback, Andy remains committed to performing at Download Festival and will do everything possible to make it happen.
