Stone Temple Pilots frontman Scott Weiland fell off stage during a gig in Cincinnati on Wednesday (August 25).

The singer was just over a minute into opening song ‘Crackerman’ when he walked off stage.

Video footage, obtained by TMZ, shows security attempting to retrieve Weiland from the pit in front of the stage.

The singer is thought to have been unhurt in the fall and continued the band’s performance at the Riverbend Music Center.

Stone Temple Pilots are currently at the start of a two month tour of North America.

The band reformed in 2008 following Weiland’s acrimonious departure from Velvet Revolver.
