The Coral have unceremoniously dumped support act The Metros off their current tour.

Talking to the NME, someone from The Metros’ camp explained that the band’s behaviour caused much rile – the scouse act not really into beer-throwing, backstage area destroying r’n’r antics.

Tired, enit? Anyway, the band’s final input on the amputated stint was the 13th of October show in Leeds. By this time, friends of The Coral had been pelted with booze. Enough.

The Metros are able to draw much enjoyment from such actions – the band have already been banned from Holiday Inns across the land for similar reasons, and show no signs of tiring.


i had never

heard of the metros until this moment.

Odd, it's almost like this tedious behaviour is contributing to their profile in some way?

'Banned from Holiday Inn across the land' - Drowned in Sound

No, I still don't want to listen to them though.


haha

stupid little vandals


Saw these at the Nottingham date

They all only looked about 12. Didn't think they'd have it in them...


are they a baby version of the MEtro Riots

people letting off steam by smaching things. So 1955


Never heard of 'em

Sadly this kind of thing is good exposure for shit bands who dont have the songs to make them stand out.


i thought..

The Coral were on tour with the Courteeners? Well that who supported them in Birmingham last week anyways...


All three played

the Nottingham date.


Good

The sooner people realise that being a dick isn't rock 'n' roll, the better.


delete this story. PLEASE

they really dont deserve the press

they are shite and a bunch of twats (they
messed up the backstage of my local once
cos they're so "rock and roll")
but this time nest year they'll be big if
people keep bloody encouraging them


*next year

...


It's nice to see for once

that everyone seems unanimous in being unimpressed with this. I agree with the above - why not delete the article?


Saw the Metros at Great Escape

Unimaginative borefest.

Not sure whether DiS should be giving them the oxygen of publicity really.


shut the fuck up dickheads

i fucking love the metros! they are a fantastic band
their music is so catchy and their lyrics are awesome and very witty

they aren't boring at all, in fact quite the opposite when playing live

and if you dont like them why waste your time in reading about them and then leaving some shitty comments about them?

sorry next time you want something a bit less 'rock n roll', go buy a fucking james blunt album
