 Kings of Poop |
Pooping pigeons forced the Kings of Leon to abandon their St. Louis, Missouri, concert after just three songs Friday night, the rock band’s management said Saturday.
An infestation of the birds in the rafters of the Verizon Amphitheatre bombarded the musicians as soon as they took the stage, according to Andy Mendelsohn of Vector Management.
“I was hit by pigeons on each of the first three songs,” he said. “We had 20 songs on the set list. By the end of the show, I would have been covered from head to toe.”
Kind of a crappy gig.
Who knew pigeons were critics?
That concert venue is located near a giant trash dump, a sewage treatment plant, and the lovely Missouri river. Pigeon crap should be the pretty low on the list of “hazards.”
Wot no comments about the musical talent?
Wasn’t this all ready done in High Anxiety?

Har! They might as well completely disband…or have themselves surgically altered and rename the group. Because, no matter how good or bad they actually are, from now on, “Kings of Leon” will officially be “The Band SO bad that…”
Actually, they are a pretty good band. Maybe the pigeons poop for all things?

Go to any statue of “supposed” war heroes and you’ll see the pigeon’s critique.

Verizon Amphitheater? I guess the pigeons wanted to let Verizon know that they “Rule The Air”!
