Pigeons force Kings of Leon to flee Verizon stage

MARYLAND HEIGHTS - A flock of pigeons got the best of a Nashville-based rock group Friday night at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater.

Kings of Leon fled from the stage after their third song, complaining they were being hit repeatedly with pigeon feces.

"The band is very sad and upset about it," Kings publicist Ken Weinstein said Saturday.

But, he said, "No band would play under those conditions."

Weinstein said band members had been warned by management of a pigeon infestation in the rafters of the amphitheater. And the band noticed that the opening groups, The Stills and The Postelles, came off the stage "riddled" with excrement, Weinstein said.
