Lee was taken by ambulance Wednesday night to the Wyoming Medical Center, the Casper Star Tribune reported Thursday. He was treated for minor burns on his face and arms and released.

The accident happened near the end of the show. Lee was hoisted on a wire and was swinging between drum kits several feet above the stage when sparks began flying, the newspaper said.

Motley Crew frontman Vince Neil told the audience there would be no encore because Lee was injured and needed medical attention.

No concerts were to be canceled because of the accident, the band's publicist said.
