ET has learned that Pearl Jam's guitarist, Mike McCready, is doing well in the wake of the fall.
Mike McCready took a tumble during a recent Pearl Jam concert. Earlier this month, when the band was playing a show in Vancouver, the guitarist fell off the stage amid his solo.
The moment happened more than halfway through the concert, which is part of the band's Dark Matter World Tour, when McCready walked towards the edge of the stage, but wound up falling off of it instead.
Fan video from the concert shows that McCready kept on jamming even from the ground, until security came along to help him back onto the stage. At that point, McCready smiled and continued playing as if nothing was amiss.
In the wake of the fall, ET has learned that Mike is doing well. The band just played a sold-out show in Portland on Friday and they will play in Sacramento on Monday night.
Last month, country star Luke Bryan took a similar spill during a concert, which, oddly, took place in Vancouver, the same city as McCready's fall. Bryan was performing when he appeared to slip on a fan's phone and fell flat on his back.
"My lawyer will be calling," he quipped, according to footage from the show.
When ET spoke to the American Idol judge shortly thereafter, he joked about the mishap.
"Ironically, last week, I was having back trouble to the point where I had to get a chiropractor to the room. It's because I've been cycling. When I get to L.A., I love to go cycling around. I love it out here," he told ET. "When I hit the ground, I was like, 'Oh!' The first thing [I thought] was, 'Oh god, all the work I did to get my back feeling better is out!'"
As for what caused the fall, Bryan said, "Everybody is reporting [about the] cellphone, but I was kind of hamming that up. I don't think it was a cellphone. I think it was just slick."
Bryan quipped that his mid-show insistence that the fall was caused by a fan's phone was because he needs "viral moments!"
"My new single is 'Love You, Miss You, Mean It,'" he said. "Now I gotta get the bumper sticker made -- 'I busted my a** and this is my new single.'"
