A Swell Season concert last week turned deadly. Gibson reports: On Thursday night, a man reportedly jumped to his death during an outdoor concert by The Swell Season at Saratoga Mountain Winery in California. While frontman Glen Hansard was performing a song, the man jumped off a nearby roof and fell onto the stage, a few feet from performers, according to local reports."The crowd was singing along with [Hansard] and he was looking for the band member... I just happened to look up and I saw this guy falling from the top of the roof on the right side of the building behind the stage," one witness told SF Weekly. "He landed about three feet to the left of Glen on a speaker and he was motionless, like a rag doll." Witnesses said that Hansard put down his guitar and walked over to the man as doctors attempted to revive him. The concertgoers said there was lots of blood on the stage. - more on this story
