e/Divine Right (band)

Information
has gloss	eng: Divine Right were formed in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, England and consisted of Ian Lindsay on Guitar, Nigel Lee on Bass and Martin (John) Thomas on drums in the early 1980s. Lasting fame (notoriety?) was achieved after the bizarre death of Martin Thomas during a live concert in front of over 250 fans at Barnsley Civic Hall in 1986. As the bass player jumped from the drum riser to start one of their "Subtle as a JCB Earth Mover" heavy metal numbers, his extensive guitar lead, which was tangled around one of the many cymbal stands, pulled the cymbal over with such force that it fell backwards into the drummer's kit severing his jugular vein. He died in Barnsley General hospital later that night. Traumatised by the incident, neither of the other musicians ever played another live concert.
