Montreal indie rockers, who opened last week's ill-fated concert, speak out after headliners Kings of Leon were chased off stage by incontinent pigeons.
Kings of Leon were forced to cancel a show last week after being showered with pigeon droppings.
The flock of avian music critics brought the St Louis concert to a cooing halt after just three songs. "You may enjoy being shit on," explained the band's drummer, "but we don't."
Even before Kings of Leon took the stage at the Verizon Amphitheatre, feathers were being ruffled.
As the Postelles and the Stills played their opening sets, pigeons in the arena's rafters made their displeasure known by pelting the bands with excrement. "We couldn't believe what the Postelles and the Stills looked like after their sets," said Kings of Leon bassist Jared Followill. "[But] we didn't want to cancel the show, so we went for it."
