Kings of Leon - Caleb Followill - Drunk on Stage?


 — After a shocking set in Dallas on Friday night at the Gexa Energy Pavilion, Kings of Leon have canceled their tour.
Lead singer Caleb Followill said his voice was shot and he wouldn't be able to sing anymore. Audience members said that Followill appeared to be drunk. His brother Jared Followill tweeted... "I know you guys aren't stupid. I can't lie. There are problems in our band bigger than not drinking enough Gatorade." 
LiveNation announced that the family band would be back September 21 for a do-over show. But around the same time, Kings of Leon's Saturday night show in Houston was canceled, and now the band won't be touring again until September 28.

Unfortunately, the U.S. dates cannot be rescheduled due to the band's international tour schedule. 
Jared Followill also tweeted, "Utterly depressed. It's completely out of my hands. Family has to come 1st. If bass solos & backing vocals were more popular, I'd be there."
