Manic Street Preacher Nicky Wire has been attacked for wearing a skirt on stage.
The flamboyant guitarist had four pints thrown at him by fans during a gig in Preston. Wire says the unprovoked assault came as he returned to the stage for the second half of the Blackwood band's concert.
He said: "For some reason, when I came on in the second half in my skimpy miniskirt, there were some real lads, I got four pints chucked at me."
'One grazed my cheek, one got me in the leg. I was just being my usual self, going mental.
"It was all good fun... well, as good fun as a pint in the face can be."
The Manics are currently touring the UK, promoting their new album Send Away The Tigers.
