According to TMZ,  Jimmy Buffett was taken to St. Vincent's Hospital in Sydney, Australia last night, after falling off of the stage during a performance.

The fall was apparently serious enough to render him unconscious for at least 10 minutes.  At last report he was in stable condition.

Sean Fogarty, who was also front and center, tells TMZ Jimmy was doing an encore at the end of the concert called "Lovely Cruise" and walking along the edge of the stage when the lighting person splashed "a huge flash of light" along the stage, making it impossible to see and he fell.  Fogarty says the next thing he knew he heard Buffett's head strike the metal on his way to the floor.
