The Vamps rock Manila despite injured member

MANILA, Philippines - British pop band The Vamps proved on Saturday night that the show must go on as they pushed through with the Manila leg of their "Wake Up" world tour despite one of their members being injured.

The band's bassist Connor Ball injured his knee during their show in Hong Kong and had to perform sitting down. The Manila crowd cheered as Ball entered the Mall of Asia Arena stage on crutches and sat down on a chair.

 

Had such an awesome show tonight! Unfortunately this leg of the world tour has been cut short and I have to go home :( but thank you so much for the shows so far they've been some of my favourite shows ever and I'm super sorry Tokyo that I won't make it to you but we will be back soon, you're the best. See you guys for the UK tour!!
