Mystery Jets Forced To Cut Set Short At Leeds Festival

August 25, 2008
Mystery Jets Forced To Cut Set Short At Leeds FestivalThe Mystery Jets were forced to cut their set on the Radio 1/NME stage short today at Leeds Festival, prompting guitarist William Rees-Moog to smash up his microphone stand in protest.

The Eel Pie Island quintet were twenty minutes late taking to the stage, only giving the time to play a fraction of their set.

The Mystery Jets have already had to pull out of seven performances this summer due to Blaine being hospitalised for ongoing Spina Bifida treatment. Their frustration at having to leave the stage early today surfaced just a few songs into their set.

“That’s pretty fucking outrageous,” Rees-Moog said to the crowd, after a technician informed the band that they only had eight minutes left to play. “Why doesn’t the person who organises Leeds festival come down here now and we’ll have a word.”

Security had to escort the band off the stage after a spirited rendition of ‘Two Doors Down’, as things took a violent turn up front, with the audience booing and bottling security in a show of support for the band.
