Get it on: Rocker Kelly Jones from Welsh band The Stereophonics was ejected from the Vodafone Live post-show party after being caught in the women's toilets

Biff: After being ejected by the doormen a drunken clubber abused Jones sparking a brawl outside the bar

The diminutive rocker insisted he was only checking on his girlfriend, but when the over-efficient doormen attempted to show him the door, reports said the Stereophonics front man refused to go quietly.

And from the looks of things, it was Jones who came off worse, as he held up his arm to reveal an unsightly-looking gash.

The ruckus took place inside the club, and as the doormen bundled Jones out, he was said to have sustained the angry wound when he lashed out and hit some glasses.

Ouch: Jones sustained a nasty gash to his arm said to have been caused when he swung it into some glasses inside the club

Emergency: Paramedics arrive to patch up the brawling rock and roller

It's possible the brawl was fuelled by an evening of free alcohol, but as paramedics arrived to treat Jones' wound, he looked suitably sober.

Until, according to reports, a random clubber walked up to rocker Jones hurling abuse which prompted a mini-brawl between the pair. The pair were separated by the doormen.

Earlier in the evening Jones and his band had performed at the awards ceremony, which was held at west London's Brompton Hall.

Hosted by Radio 1 DJ Chris Moyles, performers at the event included Kate Nash, Manic Street Preachers, Calvin Harris, Stereophonics and The Enemy.
