NOFX Singer Apologises For Attacking Fan On Stage In Sydney

Things got a tad out of hand at the Sydney show from Californian punk rock outfit NOFX last night.

Video footage has emerged from the Enmore Theatre gig of an eager fan jumping on stage and putting his arm around the band's frontman Mike Burkett, better known as Fat Mike. The muso didn't appear pleased at all over the incident, hitting the fan in the face and then kicking him while on the ground:

It does appear though that both parties have made quick amends over the incident, with Fat Mike apologising to the alleged fan in question on Twitter not long after the show finished.

I'm sorry too Alex, I was in terrible pain all night. When you grabbed me by the neck I defensively reacted... offensively @alexanderpeterq

Alex, if you go to the show on friday I'll buy you a beer. Just don't throw it at me alright?
