RoXy’s Rock Rewind
BACK IN 2010 ON THIS DATE, THE NASHVILLE ROCKERS KINGS OF LEON WERE SET TO ROCK ST LOUIS AT WHAT WE NOW KNOW AS HOLLYWOOD CASINO AMPITHEATER FOLLOWING 2 OPENERS WHEN JUST A FEW SONGS INTO THEIR SET, THEY JUST LEFT THE STAGE COMPLAINING ABOUT A BUNCH OF BIRD POOP…THAT’S RIGHT, THE KINGS OF LEON GOT POOED ON BY A FLOCK OF PIGEONS CHLLING OUT IN THE RAFTERS HIGH ABOVE THE STAGE…A FULL REFUND WAS MADE AVAILABLE TO ALL CONCERTGOERS AS KINGS ONLY PERFORMED 3 SONGS! LATER AN ANONYMOUS TIP REPORTED THAT IT WASN’T BIRD DROPPINGS THAT HALTED THE SHOW, RATHER DRUNK BAND MEMBERS! WE STILL DON’T KNOW WHAT THE TRUTH IS! BUT REPORTEDLY THE BASSIST HAD CAUGHT SOME OF THE FEATHERED FRIEND’S DROPPINGS IN HIS MOUTH! GAH! THAT WOULD MAKE ME RECONSIDER TOO…BUT WAS THIS A CASE OF KINGS OF LEON USING THE PIGEONS AS A SCAPE GOAT? DON’T WE ALL USE SOMEBODY TO BLAME OUR PROBLEMS ON ONCE IN AWHILE? WHY NOT A FLOCK OF DIRTY PIGEONS…TODAY’S ROCK REWIND IS THE KINGS OF LEON’S 2008 HIT SINGLE “USE SOMEBODY”…IN THE 5 OCLOCK FREAK OUT ON 105.7 THE X!
