Kings of Leon cut their set short Friday night (July 29) in Dallas after frontman Caleb Followill stormed off stage.
After playing their eleventh song in their set, ‘Notion‘, a drunk Caleb told the crowd, “I’m trying my best to sing but I haven’t got a voice, I’ve got nothing here. I’m not drunk, I’m just fucking hot,” and left the stage.
After several minutes went by bassist Jared Followill came out to address the audience and apologizese. He told the crowd that Caleb was unable to continue and said, “fucking hate Caleb, not us. I don’t know what to say. It’s not our fault. It’s Caleb. He can’t play the rest of the show. We will be back as soon as possible.”
Taking to twitter Jared wrote “Dallas, I cannot begin to tell you how sorry I am. There are internal sicknesses & problems that have needed to be addressed. No words.”
A second tweet over 14 hours later read, “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.”
Drummer Nathan Followill sent out a tweet this morning that read, “Not so good morning 4 me today. Ashamed & embarrassed by last nights fiasco. Can’t apologize enough, utterly gutted. A million I’m sorry’s.”
As of now the band are still due to continue their North American tour.
