The past couple weeks they even cut down the price to reserved seating in some sections to $10.57 (the radio station that was hosting is 105.7) and all lawn seats were dropped down to the same price as well. So saying the concert undersold is an understatement. And the other rumor was that there is something in their contact where if they play a certain length of a show (don’t know if it’s a time limit or song limit) that they would get partial payment, regardless if they finish the show or not.
I also live in St. Louis To add on to the bolded, apparently all the band members were super hungover from drinking the night before. So medics advised them not to play, blah blah blah. Of course KoL wants money, so they just went on to play the minimum amount to get paid, then got off and left. Supposedly they already had most of the stuff packed up to go when Kings of Leon just started playing. So they had this planned from the start apparently.
