Video: Moby Gets Electrocuted At Acoustic Performance
Photos: MobyWhile performing an intimate set at an Amsterdam Art Gallery, simply put, Moby gets electrocuted. While playing an acoustic guitar…
Wow. Where to start on this one?
The Dutch dude running the art gallery that thinks it’s a joke? Moby’s singer who holds the wire that electrocuted him after he gets the shock treatment? The super-dramatic fall and pass out even after he seems completely fine? The fact that he got electrocuted where his cross tattoo is located on the back of his neck? The dozens of press in attendance that stand and take pictures instead of helping him?
Damn. Being electrocuted in the neck kind of hurts. Ah well, feeling much better. Glad it wasn't worse. God bless tesla.—

To update — Moby is fine. He later tweeted: “”Thanks for coming to the acoustic show. I apologize for being electrocuted.”

First of all, this bald butt-brain was not electrocuted! Second of all, was the current that was allegedly flowing through the “wire” suddenly shorted after shocking Mr. Mobius therefore allowing his back-up singer to handle it? Give me a break. The most disgusting part of this video is Mr. Mobe’s super-hero like ability to seemingly be “electrocuted” yet JUMP down from the stage approximately 1 METER, hand his flipping guitar to someone and then pass out? Give me a break Moob! If you watch closely, this idiot simply bumped his bald tattooed neck into a hot light bulb. And in case you weren’t aware of it, which you obviously weren’t, none of the reporters helped him because they knew THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH HIM AND HE WAS BEING A DRAMA QUEEN BECAUSE YOU CAN’T JUMP AND PERFORM OTHER ACTIVITIES AFTER BEING SERIOUSLY HURT! At least they all got treated to an acoustic version of a song that was only made famous because of the voice he stole.
