Mark Ronson uploaded a picture of himself in a hospital bed, giving a thumbs-up. In the caption of his Instagram post, he explained that during his last gig, the house PA, which is the venue's in-house speaker equipment, was in bad condition. To help, he tried to move the heavy stage monitor toward the audience and ended up popping two bicep tendons.

"That time the house PA was so bad that I tried to one-hand turn the stage monitor towards the crowd mid-mix to give them some extra juice. Turns out they weigh more than I thought…Two popped bicep tendons and one finished gig later, here we are, baby! #tornthisway," he wrote.

According to Mayo Clinic, physical therapy and rest help cure popped bicep tendons. However, in severe cases, surgery might be necessary.
