A band at a popular downtown honky tonk was back in business just one day after the band's drummer fell out of a plate glass window.

The incident happened Friday night at Robert's Western World, and it was caught on camera by Ty Anderson.

The Don Kelley Band was playing through their set when the drummer, Stan Saxson, fell backwards through the window at the end of a song.

Stan injured a rib, but otherwise he said he was okay and back playing at the same bar Saturday night.

Several people were standing outside the bar when Saxson fell out of the window, including Patrick Harrigan.

“All of a sudden there was a loud crash, and the drummer comes flying through the window -- and with him, his snare drum,” Harrigan said.

The Don Kelley Band has been playing together since 1981.
