okidoki! here goes;

In the mid 1990's(roughly) Michael Jackson was giving a performance at a large music awards ceremony. He was dressed in white(Christ-like), accompanied with children, who he was healing in a Messiah like capacity, while performing his atrocious 'Earthsong'.

Angered by this self-aggrandisement, the lead singer of a popular indie rock band stormed the stage as a sign of protest and pretented to flash, did a little dance then sat back down. A couple of children were supposedly injured in the ruckus!

Who was this indie artist, and what band was he in?
