And Finally
Jared Followill drives into garage
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 22 September 2011
Now, I admit, that headline doesn’t sound very exciting. But what if I were to tell you that the garage door wasn’t open at the time. And it wasn’t Kings Of Leon bassist Jared Followill’s own garage, huh? What about that? What if it was his neighbour’s garage? And what if he’d only just moved in, meaning he’s off to a bad start with said neighbour? Would that be exciting? Would it? Huh? Huh?
Well, hold onto your seats, because this is what Followill tweeted on Tuesday: “Ran my SUV through my neighbour’s garage door at 2am. Lucky me, I bought the house a couple weeks ago. Unlucky me, my hood is destroyed”.
Woooooooo! Can you handle more excitement? Yeah? Well, what if the reason he drove through the garage door was because he was locked out of his house? I know that doesn’t make sense, but we’ll have to assume he was drunk and got the wrong garage, because here’s what he tweeted next: “All the doors were locked and it seemed like the best option to get inside after [Mona frontman Nick Brown] punched all the windows out and cut his hand”.
Yeah! Rock and also roll! There was not only another rock star involved, but that one had punched through all the windows in Followill’s house! No wonder they were confused about which garage they should crash through the door of. Man, they must have been so drunk.
Except Followill insisted that he “wasn’t drinking”. I guess he must have just been in a panic because someone had broken all his windows. No, “it was a dare”, he said. “I obliged my audience”.
Oh. So, er, none of that makes any sense.
