[bomp] KC of KC and the Sunshine Band falls off the stage
For KC of KC and the Sunshine Band, during a concert is definitely not the
way he likes it. Uh huh, uh huh.
KC, whose real name is Wayne Casey, took a headfirst fall off a 6-foot-high
stage while performing Saturday at the Cinco de Mayo Festival in Phoenix.
The 54-year-old singer suffered a sprained knee and a cut over his right eye
that needed six stitches.
The band was two songs into its set when Casey took the tumble, just as
''Boogie Shoes'' was beginning.
''I left my shoes at the hotel and had to perform in a new pair,'' Casey,
who is recovering at his Miami home, said in a statement Monday. ''I picked
the wrong pair of Boogie Shoes!''
Casey nevertheless resumed his performance and went to a local hospital
afterward.
KC and the Sunshine Band's '70s disco hits include ''(That's the Way) I Like
It,'' ''Get Down Tonight'' and ''(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty.''
They will continue with shows in Winter Haven, Fla., on Friday and in
Atlanta on Saturday.
