Nuno Bettencourt recently injured his knee playing basketball on the Monsters of Rock 2023 Cruise. However, despite a little self-consciousness at having to perform seated, the Extreme virtuoso gamely hammered through the band’s set the next day.
Clips of yesterday’s (May 4) MOR performance show Bettencourt – never one to take a backseat in performances – positioned upfront on his chair, armed with his Washburn N4 signature guitar and seemingly suffering no impediment to his playing ability. At one point he joked with the crowd, “I guess I can play sitting down!”
