The fan became a viral sensation after footage of the man stripping and getting on his friends' shoulders for 'Sex On Fire' at the show at Birmingham's LG Arena on Tuesday 9 July spread across the internet.

Taking to Twitter to post his thoughts on the incident, drummer Nathan Followill said: "Thank you Birmingham. We saw a side of you that we've never seen before."

Tweeting ahead their second consecutive show at the venue last night (10 July),the drummer then invited the man, named by The Sun as Jimmy Dorris, to have a beer with them before the show

"Hey Birmingham sausage man, if you're on twitter, DM me," tweeted Followill. "We owe you a beer tomorrow night."

Dorris naturally went along to the arena to meet the band, posting pictures of the reunion and tweeting: "Cannot believe taking my clothes off resulted in this!"
