Music 411: Kings of Leon (& Bird Doo)

Posted in: Music 411

This may be one of the better rock and roll stories to comes out in some time. It wasn’t fabricated to create media hype, nobody (really) got hurt and it doesn’t involve rehab.

The Kings of Leon were performing Friday night in St. Louis. After just three songs, they canceled the show because pigeons that were staying the rafters of the Verizon Amphitheater were pooping all over them.

The bassist, who describes himself as a “germophobe” took the brunt of it all. One report even says a bird hit him square in the mouth. The opening bands, The Postelles and The Stills came offstage complaining of getting riddled with large amounts of excrement.

The good news is the fans got refunds.

That’s still rough. I guess that gives new meaning to giving a sh***y performance.
