Country music star suffers injury while performing: ‘I’m just gonna make y’all squirm’

Keith Urban recently shared a squeamish story in which he got injured while performing.

Urban, a guest on Much Music, shared how a run-of-the-mill cut on his finger took a turn for the worse when one of the guitar strings got into the cut.

“So, I got a band-aid on my finger, so if I drop a pick, I’ll probably rip this thing off at some point,” he said.

“We were playing last night, a club show, and I cut my finger at some point, and then as I pulled my finger up on a strumming stroke, the string went into the cut.”

Urban laughed as he re-told the story.

“I’m just gonna make y’all squirm like I did last night.”
