Kasabian and Noel Fielding attack boring bands who prefer chicken and broccoli to booze

Kasabian and Noel Fielding have hit out at “boring” bands who do their online shopping backstage instead of causing “carnage”.

Guitarist Serge Pizzorno argued that some musicians “don’t deserve to be doing this job” because they would rather eat “chicken and broccoli” than raid the bar for booze.

“I won’t expose any bands but there’s nothing more depressing than seeing a band come off stage at a festival, go backstage and just flip their laptop open,” he told The Big Issue.

“I’m thinking, ‘Are you not gonna have a drink now? Cause some carnage?’ and they’re like ‘Nah mate, gotta watch the weight’. F*** that, you don’t deserve to be doing this job!”

Comedian Fielding, who was also being interviewed for the magazine, added that a lot of modern bands are “so f***ing earnest and serious”.
