Hey everyone!
Developing story just coming in over the wire. Kings of Leon have abruptly canceled the remainder of their U.S. tour following an incident that occurred while the band was performing in Dallas on Friday night. Apparently, lead singer Caleb Followill felt that his voice wasn't at his best, so he then stormed off stage and said that he was going to throw up and then drink some beer. Temperatures in Dallas were in the 90's, and reports said that Caleb suffered from heat exhaustion that caused his vocal cords to deteriorate quite a bit. The band released this statement just a short time ago detailing the announcement:
"We are so sorry to say Kings of Leon are canceling their entire
US tour due to Caleb Followill suffering from vocal issues and
exhaustion, The band is devastated, but in order to give their fans the shows
they deserve, they need to take this break. Unfortunately, the US
dates cannot be rescheduled due to the band's international tour
schedule,"
Caleb's brother and fellow bandmate Jared Followill hinted at deeper problems resonating through the band. He said on his Twitter account, "I love our fans so much. I know you guys aren't stupid. I can't lie.
There are problems in our band bigger than not drinking enough
Gatorade." This definitely smells of a breakup imminent with the band, what do you guys think? Leave your comments here on the blog and tell me what you think!
