Concert Hall, Man Sued Over Stage Dive

A former Aspen woman is suing the Belly Up Aspen concert hall and a Virginia man who allegedly dove off the stage during a concert last year and landed on her.

Abbie Wade filed the lawsuit in Pitkin County District Court on Tuesday. It lists the concert venue and Andrew Stewart of Virginia Beach as defendants responsible for her injuries.

The lawsuit says during the June 9 concert by a Talking Heads cover band, Belly Up staff allowed Stewart onto the stage.

According to the Aspen Daily News, Stewart said he dove off the stage on a dare from friends.
