Pigeon poo cancels Kings of Leon concert

Disappointed fans saw a concert cancelled because of pigeon poo!

The rock band Kings of Leon had to stop a gig in St Louis after just three songs because their drummer got hit in the face by pigeon poo!

The group's drummer Nathan Followill said on Twitter "it was too unsanitary to continue".

Kings of Leon publicist Amy Mendelsohn added: " (The bassist) Jared Followill was hit several times during the first two songs. On the third song, when he was hit in the cheek and some of it landed near his mouth, they couldn't deal any longer.... It's not only disgusting, it's a toxic hazard. They really tried to hang in there."

Should the Kings of Leon have carried on despite the pigeon poo? Let us know by voting in our poll at www.firstnews.co.uk/polls.

    I agree with MEG. But if they had to cancel it, they should give all the people that turned up a ticket to the next concert of theirs. BOO890

    That is disgusting, but I agree with BOO and MEG that they should either give the people a full refund, or a ticket to their next concert if it was completely urgent to stop the concert, or they could have just had a few minutes' interval so he could wash it off! REDHORSE10
