    KINGS OF LEON WERE AMAZING!
    Something annoyed Caleb, making him think we were fed up with the KOL...NEVER!!! We will always love you and will never get fed up!!!
    KINGS OF LEON - ROCK - THANK YOU FOR COMING BACK!

    I was in the crowd yesterday. Although KOL played superbly, their strop at the crowd seemed quite unjustified from where I was.

    Pathetic strop at the crowd. I was there and from where I was standing it was totally unjustified. Love their music but GET OVER YOURSELVES BOYS!!!!

    At T in the Park, we were all jumping around and going crazy for every single song. Maybe they've just come to expect this from festival crowds - but from what I can see from the coverage of Reading is people just standing around waiting for SOF. I don't blame the boys for getting a bit fed up of this, they have another 3 incredible albums other than Only By The Night. Greatest band in the world, show some love guys!!!

    There was no standing around waiting where I was....everyone was dancing and singing to all the songs! Miserable they were......

    I don't understand reviewers saying this was lackluster performance?! I've seen the band twice before and this as just as good as either of those performances.. Probably better.. Listen to Caleb's vocals on pretty much every song (especially the opener though for me).. They sound amazing! I'm not sure about the crowd comments, they sound pretty into it to me!! ...

    I was at the gig last night and thought that KoL were awesome! So what if they had a strop - at least they were showing some emotion. I especially liked the bit when the guy smashed his guitar up - ROCK AND ROLL!
