Stabbed in the back of the head and ends up with a non-life threatening wound? What, was he stabbed with a spoon?

Depends on the depth of the cut and where it hit really. Skulls are pretty hard too.

thats right. My mate got stabbed in the head while i got stabbed in the leg and my wound was much worse. The skull was too strong for the knife and the knife kind of just slid down his head making a small gash to be stitched up.

This certainly does sound like the sort of shit we used to get up to when we were young idiots, but these guys must be getting on now, kind of embarrassing even for rock stars. Maybe they should grow up and cut themselves like black metal musicians.

Exactly, it's kind of funny how people tend to forget that. I mean... There's a reason why surgeons usually use a friggin chainsaw to open it. Visually, head wounds tend to look worse than they really are because they bleed like crazy sometimes.

After the ambulance was called, all I suppose he could do was Wait and Bleed until it arrived.

lol. If it was fatal/life threatening I wouldn't have said it. I just hope it doesn't affect him long term and he'll be back playing again soon
