Arcade Fire don't like Nottingham

Arcade Fire say they will never play Nottingham again after frontman Win Butler was hit by a bottle during their show there.

Arcade Fire have said they will never play in Nottingham again after frontman Win Butler was struck in the face by a bottle during their show there this week. Butler stopped his rendition of 'Neighbourhood #3 (Power Out)' when hit by the bottle, but then proceeded with the gig, changing the lyrics of the song to reference "the fucker" who threw the missile. But then another object was thrown at the stage, leading Butler to declare "We'll never play Nottingham again". So that's you naughty Nottinghamers told.
