Musicians have performed through violent storms and scorching temperatures at an outdoor arena in suburban St. Louis.

But an infestation of pigeons that bombarded the Kings of Leon with droppings at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre managed to force an early end to the rock band's concert Friday night.

A statement from the band's management company, Vector Management, says bassist Jared Followill was hit several times, including near his mouth, and that the onslaught of feces was a potential health hazard.

The crowd grew restless after the band walked off, and an announcement told them that the show was over. Concert promoter Live Nation says fans will get a full refund.

Vector says band representatives had been warned of a pigeon infestation in the rafters.

Kings Of Leon cancel gig after pigeons poo in bassist's mouth
Kings Of Leon were forced to pull out of a gig after bass player Jared Followill was pooed on by pigeons.

The US rockers walked off stage just three songs into their set after Followill was showered with pigeon droppings.

The last straw came when some of it reportedly landed near his mouth during the gig at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre in St Louis, Missouri.

The lights were cut and organisers told the angry crowd that the gig was being stopped because of “safety concerns”.

“This show cannot go on. The situation is beyond our control.”

Drummer Nathan later explained on his Twitter page: “So sorry St Louis. We had to bail, pigeons s***ing in Jared’s mouth and it was too unsanitary to continue.”

He added: “Don't take it out on Jared, it's the f*****g venue’s fault. You may enjoy being s*** on but we don't.

“Sorry for all who travelled many miles.”

The band had been warned about the situation after support bands The Postelles and The Stills came off stage covered in pigeon excrement but they were determined they could deal with it - until it all got too much.

Followill said afterwards: "I was hit by pigeons on each of the first three songs. We had 20 songs on the set list. By the end of the show, I would have been covered from head to toe."

Open forum interrupted by unprecedented amount of faggotry

Siccness-goons have posted through violent storms and scorching faggotry caused by non other than artistic.

But this infestation of faggotry that has bombarded the open forum with wackness, the Siccness managed to force an early end to artistic's rap career.

A statement from the goons and gonettes, say Emma destroyed artistic on the mic, bitch, including his life, and that the onslaught of artistic was a potential health hazard.

The Siccness grew restless after artistic was exposed, and an announcement told them that he was indeed the faggot everyone thought he would be. Siccness moderators say members got their lol's worth.

Emma says artistic had been warned of artistic of his faggotry and chose not to listen, and got destroyed on the mic, bitch.
