Sorry if this is the wrong place, but can anyone clarify/confirm that Duff was hospitalised after being hit by a bottle of urine during a show?
Seems kind of bizarre

He was definitely hit by a bottle full of piss and it kind of knocked him out, but I'm not sure he was hospitalised for that.

He was indeed hospitalised. This is taken from a review of the show on gnrontour :
From there Axl was solo on the piano for a while doing the intro to November Rain, and by this time things were rolling again- that is, until someone threw a bottle and hit Duff in the head.
It happened at the end of November Rain as the Piano was being moved from the stage. It was very dark since they usually turn the house lights down low when they are re-arranging the stage. I could hear Axl say "did you find it?" as some crew members were frantically searching the stage. I was thinking, "Great; someone threw a shoe on stage and now they are leaving." Axl came on the mike, very angry- "Some asshole hit Duff in the head with a bottle, and we are going now. If you find the fucker that did it, kill him." and he tosses the mike over his shoulder as he leaves and it bounces on the stage, leaving a hollow thunk sound that sounded like a death bell for the performance. I knew right there that they weren't coming back, since I know that they have left for smaller incidents than this. My friend thought they might be coming back since it was still dark and the house lights weren't on, but I told him they weren't coming back. There was 5-10 minutes of chaos, with only a few people leaving and most just standing around- I could hear a small chant, "Kill that fucker". I mean they crew guy said they would leave if shit like this happened before the show even started. My guess was that it was probably a Metallica fan :-)
I was hoping that Duff was not hurt that bad and that if we promised to behave ourselves, they would come back on stage and finish the show. Since I was near the side stage, I saw something that didn't look good- a guy carrying a medical box backstage. Finally Slash came on stage and took the mike. The crowd started cheering, but I knew it wasn't going to do any good. Thankfully he came out and gave us some more info, and officially ended the show instead of having everyone just stand around. He said something paraphrased like so:
Duff was hit in the head with a bottle of piss, and he has to go to the hspital. This shit has happened before. It only takes one person to screw it up for everyone.
You know what this means, don't you? (crowd noise) He can't come back and play. You guys were great, and maybe we can try to reschedule something if we come out this way again... but for now the best thing to do is just go... stream out of here and don't fuck with anybody or anyone's shit... just go peacefully.....

I didn't realise it was written in GNR folklore... and here I was thinking I knew of most things in GN'Rs history and I missed a gem like this!

it's true he did get hit by a bottle but according to something i read i while ago (maybe on one fo the HTGTH articles) it wasn't literally piss.
