Patti Smith tripped over a speaker and injured herself during a live show in London on Sunday.
According to NME, the singer fell on her face during a rendition of 'Rock N Roll Nigger', cutting her elbow during the fall.
Smith didn't stand up for a few seconds, but was greeted by cheers from the Shepherd's Bush Empire audience when she did eventually rise again.
After kicking the offending speaker, Smith told the audience: "I'm not even f****** embarrassed because I've done far worse.
"May [guitars] be the only weapons we use, may tripping up be the only humiliations we suffer, and may these [pointing to her scuffed elbow] be the only battle scars."
