Eurovision winning metallers Lordi were last week shot at while in the US. The incident happened in Kentucky, where the Finnish band had played a gig. Apparently the band were in their tour bus when a car pulled up, the driver of which started shooting - at both the band and their fans. No one was hurt, although one fan was temporarily held hostage. The band's manager ran for help, meaning police were soon on the seen.
Speaking about the incident, frontman Mr Lordi told Blabbermouth: "Rikk [Scholvinck] ran to a bar and called the police who arrived soon. In a moment we were surrounded by like five police cars but the guys managed to escape. They were a group of drug addicts that had stolen the car earlier that night, and police were already looking for them, but have still not managed to catch them".
