Kenny Chesney managed to get on stage and perform his little cowboy hat heart out, after getting his foot crushed in an elevator-type platform, that was supposed to life him to his entrance in the middle of Williams-Brice Stadium, in Columbia, SC.

The country music man's right foot got caught in the lifting device on Saturday night, but Kenny managed to complete his entire performance, though not without hobbling around. After the show, medics had to cut his boot off to assess the extent of the injury (which is not currently known).

But the good 'ol boy that he is, Kenny issued this statement:

"I took one look at those fans, and there was no way I wasn't going on. Sometimes the energy and the adrenalin pull you through. They had come to rock, and there was no way I was sending them home with anything less than the best of what me and my guys came to do – put it all out there and give them back at least as good as they gave us. Honestly, through the pain, through all of it, Columbia, S.C., totally got me through."

Now that's dedication. If I stub my toe I have to cancel all of my activities for the next month.

Feel better, Kenny!
