Kings of Leon have expressed a desire for more of their fans to get naked during live shows.
In 2013, a male fan stripped entirely naked during 'Sex On Fire' at the band's Birmingham gig, was lifted up by an enthusiastic crowd, and subsequently invited backstage for a beer. The band affectionately refer to the incident as the "Birmingham Sausage."

In fact, it seems Kings Of Leon enjoyed the impromptu striptease so much they're keen for fans to repeat the stunt. Speaking in an interview with Q, Nathan Followill said: "It did spice up the show a little bit. We're up there pouring our hearts out and if someone wants to show us a little skin, then that will only add a little variety to our show."
He added: "So anyone out there, preferably of the female variety... but if anyone wants to hang a little dong we'll look at that too." Equality at its finest.
The band released their sixth studio album in September of last year, when it reached No.1 in the UK - their fourth album to do so.
Kings Of Leon embark on an arena tour at the end of May, which will see them perform in Newcastle, Sheffield, Manchester, Glasgow and Milton Keynes. For more information, visit Gigwise Gig Tickets.
