Bloc Party Shun The Killers On US Radio Station

Bloc Party frontman Kele Okereke has revealed that the band purposefully shunned the Killers during a recent appearance on US radio.

Both bands were booked to perform at separate times on the Californian station over Christmas.

However, Okereke said Bloc Party went out of their way to make sure they avoided the Las Vegas band.

"I didn't watch The Killers," he told the Daily Mirror newspaper. "In fact, I made sure I left before they came onstage."

Meanwhile, Bloc Party are scheduled to embark on a short US and Canadian tour in March.
