Kings Of Leon spat at T In The Park
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 14 July 2009
According to reports, Kings Of Leon got up to a bit of infighting at T In The Park at the weekend. Apparently it was sound problems that prompted the ill feeling between Caleb Followill and the rest of the band, brothers Nathan and Jared and cousin Matthew, and in the ensuing fracas the boys had to be separated by their tour manager. Caleb had apparently already smashed his guitar during the set, and hurled it into the crowd, which isn’t very nice, if you ask me. Someone could have got hurt.
The Sun quote a source as saying: “He was livid about the sound and took out his anger on stage without considering the consequences. His guitar is now ruined. The crowd were oblivious to the sound difficulties but the Kings want every show to be perfect. When they came off stage tempers flared and they were effing and blinding at each other. It was really nasty before their tour manager stepped in. They were even threatening to pull out of Oxegen”.
