Jay Leno was in for more than he bargained
for when he booked The Vines as musical guest. The band is known for their
some wild stage antics and they lived up to their reputation during a rehearsal
for the Tonight Show appearance on Dec 10th.
The Australian music news site Undercover
is reporting that lead vocalist Craig Nicholls went a little crazy during
sound check and decided to trash the set just like it was a typical Vines
concert. Nicholls was said to have destroyed a plexiguard around the drumkit
during the end of the bands performance of Outthaway. As a result,
the Tonight Show decided that the show could not go on with the Vines and
pulled the band from the episode.
During his monologue at the beginning of
the show Tuesday night, Leno told the studio audience, "How many people
came to see The Vines, the Australian band? They were supposed to be here.
What happened? They got in a fight. He hit the drummer on the head or something.
They are not here. They were loaded at 6 o'clock".
Gotta love rock n roll!
