In An Age Where Musicians Are Cancelling Shows Right And Left, Sometimes In The Middle Of Them, Post Malone Took A Digger Last Night, Falling Through A Trap Door On Stage, During His Sold Out Concert, And Valiantly Finished The Show.

TMZ - Post Malone took a super nasty fall onstage ... it was so bad, medics had to help him off and the fans didn't know whether to wait it out or pack it in.

It happened Saturday night in St. Louis at the Enterprise Center halfway through the concert, where he was performing "Circles."

Post was showin' his stuff as he walked down a ramp that extended onto the floor of the arena. It would've gone fine, but there was a hole in the floor that he used to lower his guitar and it hadn't been covered up.

He stepped in it and took an awful fall ... sprawled out on the concert floor. An eyewitness tells TMZ one of his legs was shaking uncontrollably. Medics rushed in and eventually flanked him as he left the stage.

He asked fans to give him a few minutes to collect himself, but clearly, everyone was concerned and some doubtful he'd even return.

15 minutes later, Post resurfaced and performed "Rockstar" and "Cooped Up." "Rockstar" fits because Post was determined to continue even though he clearly was in pain … clutching his ribs as he sang.

Post thanked the crowd for hangin' in there and told them there was a "big-ass hole in the stage" and even apologized -- not necessary. He finished out the show and even stayed after to sign a few autographs.

No word on his condition … but he's scheduled to continue his "Twelve Carat Tour" in Columbus Sunday.

Some people are calling Post a "hero" today. I'm calling him hockey tough.

I haven't seen a lethal combination of singing ability and hockey toughness since Ken Baumgartner graced us with "Bomber".

Or Darren McCarty and Grinder

You get the point. Everywhere you look nowadays you see musical acts dropping like flies.

They spent 2 years during Covid bitching about how bad they wanted to get back on the road. Rightfully so.

But now that they're back, they're looking for reasons to pull themselves faster than a 13-year-old kid who found his dad's porn stash.

Take for example just the past few weeks - 

The Weeknd!

BIEBS!

Lady Gaga!

Da Baby!

Kid Rock!

Not Post Malone though.

Asked the crowd to give him a few minutes to catch his breathe, (probably took a few monster bong rips), then headed back out to the stage, asked for a beer, and closed that bitch out.

What a showman.
