The Kings Of Leon show in Dallas was stopped after lead singer Caleb Followill left the stage during the band’s set. According to audience reports, he said-
“I love my wife, I love my kid..you guys are the greatest. I need to take a break, drink some tequila and a beer. I’ll be back for 3 more songs”
His brothers came out minutes later to announce the show was canceled. The audience went nuts.
Story still developing.
UPDATE: No official statement yet, here is what the band has tweeted thus far:
Nathan Followill
“So sorry Dallas, your heat got the best of a few of us. I’m so sorry for the inconvenience of all this bullshit. We’ll be back soon.”
Jared Followill
“Dallas, I cannot begin to tell you how sorry I am. There are internal sicknesses & problems that have needed to be addressed. No words.”
UPDATE:
7/30/11 – Kings of Leon will NOT play Houston, Texas tonight.
8/1/11 – The band cancels their entire remaining U.S. tour.
