That'd be a nightmare for me. Pigeons are disease bags and pigeon shit is specifically disgusting.
Still wouldn't stop playing though.

Lead singer for a band I was in vomited in the following bands Marshal amp head at a battle of the bands. It had more to do with whiskey than it did bird crap but it was a un-rock-n-roll moment.

LOL!
Shouldn't have stopped playing. I mean, I would have stopped and... brushed my teeth, mouthwashed, etc, but holy shit! (lol)
And blaming the venue? Really?
Also, the Postelles are -so- much better than Kings of Leon.

WTF.
The dude from fucking
Silverchair got hit in the face with a fucking
bottle and he kept playing!

Pigeons are filthy, nasty creatures though and I would be pissed. However, you never stop the rock.... oh wait, that's right, KoL is a pop band.

Man, Ozzy would have gargled with it, eaten the pigeon and kept on going.
Someone call Campaign for Real Rock Stars and complain.

p.s. Yeah, gross. But... like you don't have all sorts of fun little TOILETRIES and AMENITIES in your backstage/greenroom/blowjob area. You spit that shit out, go brosser les dents a bit, gargle with some lava or something, then get back out there.
And then go like this:

Besides the tune "Knocked Up" being all sorts of awesome,
I could give 2 pigeon shits anyway.

Dudes, I know that its fun to make fun of Kings of Leon (I think they suck platypus balls)
but seriously
if a pigeon shit in my mouth while playing, I'd be on the floor wretching. And pigeons are some of the most disgusting, disease-infested fucking vermin on the face of the earth. However, I'd probably chug a few beers to get the taste out of my mouth, and then carry on. But cancelling the show is bullshit.

i think we all agree
pigeons are fucking disgusting, and pigeon shit is BEYOND disgusting, but cancelling a gig because of pigeon shit is a bitch move.
