This has a precedent, Keith Moon collapsed on stage at a Who gig in the USA ( horse sedative, washed down with brandy)

A kid was summoned from the audience to play drums.

A good friend of mine was a piano player in a rag time band and one night they were playing in Derry. Now this friend, while being an excellent musician was also a person who liked a drink. had a few drinks to loose up the creative juices, during the show he was overcome with the need to be sick so he rushed of the stage and rushed to the toilet. Once he had straightened himself out he went back to the hall where he heard his group performing, with a piano player., so he thought to himself ”I might as well take the opportunity to go to the bar and have a drink “. The singer of the group spotted him making his way to the bar and announced that he was back and would be resuming his spot. But my mate protested that his stand in piano player should be allowed to carry on as he seemed to be enjoying himself. However the stand in got up and left the stage without any ceremony. The singer then asked for applause for Phil Coulter. My mate, who was a brilliant musician, used to bask in the glory that Phil Coulter came on as substitute for him.

Dave Grohl knows how to have fun while being decent at the same time. I love that this is in Croatia and the dude's from Manchester.
