On September 11, 2005, Bouvier was hit by a water bottle while performing “Welcome to My Life” at the Ovation Music Festival in Stratford, Ontario . He stumbled off the stage and was taken to a nearby hospital shortly after, where he received an closed number of stitches. The band finished the song with an audience member as an impromptu guest singer and cut the concert short. The injury forced the band to cancel their appearance at a ReAct Now: Music & Relief benefit concert for Hurricane Katrina victims the following night. In a separate incident, Comeau was hit in the face by a glass bottle during a concert in Detroit , which required four stitches to his nose/mouth area. Sometime afterwards, they went on a South American tour.
