As reported late last week, a Swearing At Motorists show ended with a flying guitar and an angry patron at last week's SXSW showcase. Turns out, the patron wasn't angry after all. Upon speaking with Motorists frontman Dave Doughman, presumably the guy on the receiving end of the cherry red telecaster was none other than Knievel frontman, Wayne Connelly. "I felt really bad the next morning about the whole thing," said Doughman. "Then at breakfast I ran into him and apologized, he showed me his head and said, 'look mate, four stitches.'"
