Kooks fans send roof tiles falling at Blackpool gig

Fans jumping at a The Kooks gig upstairs in Blackpool sent roof tiles falling onto the audience of a Cannon and Ball show below, forcing the band to finish acoustically.

I think this can be an 'and finally' story because I don't think anyone was hurt. If someone was, then I apologise for being a bit flippant. Anyway, audience members at a Cannon and Ball show in Blackpool had to dodge falling roof tiles after the crowd at a The Kooks gig on the floor above got rather carried away jumping up and down. Such was the effect of the Kooks fans jumping, the band were told to finish there set in an acoustic stylee in the hope that would calm everyone down. I'm not sure it did. Still, I suspect there was nothing to worry about, if I remember rightly Canon & Ball are on first name terms with God these days, so I'm sure he was looking after their audience while the evil Kooks brigade caused trouble upstairs.
