Rob Thomas is being sued by a woman who was hit in the face with a drum stick by the rock donkey at one of his solo shows in 2005 and suffered a cervical herniated disc from the trauma. The woman’s husband, a neurosurgeon who has had some financial problems of his own recently (dude owed back taxes), is suing Thomas as well for “loss of consortium.” While there have been rumors of cervical issues caused by drum sticks throughout the history of rock, this is possibly the first time they were due to a blow to the face.
