Defecating Birds Stop Kings Of Leon

July 28, 2010 | ISSUE 46•30

After being hit repeatedly by pigeon feces from the rafters of the Verizon Amphitheater in St. Louis, the band Kings of Leon stopped its concert after just three songs. What do you think?

  • Jill Kravinoff Maintenance Mechanic

    "I thought they stopped because they only have three songs."

  • Scott Morbius Systems Analyst

    "If you're thinking of buying tickets to Kings of Leon's upcoming show at Louisville's Feral Cat Arena, you might want to save your money."

  • Noah Beck Bookkeeper

    "What the Kings of Leon didn't realize was that this was a test. And the Kings of Leon failed. And the test was sort of a weird test."
