Grimes gets electric shock from her earpieces mid-performance
Grimes aka Claire Elise Boucher played a headlining show Tuesday night at the Olympia Theatre in Dublin, Ireland. The performance was interrupted several times citing a malfunctioning pedal as the problem which electrocuted the synth-pop star several times during the performance.
The mishap happened mid-way through the chorus of “Butterfly”. Footage of the set ended up on YouTube, here’s the sequence where things went seriously wrong:

Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
