Macaulay Culkin booed off stage in Nottingham

Macaulay Culkin booed off stage in Nottingham

Macaulay Culkin has been booed off stage at a concert with his band The Pizza Underground in Nottingham.

The group, who play Velvet Underground songs with pizza-themed lyrics and kazoo solos, also had pints of beer thrown at them.

"Why are you throwing those?" Culkin asked the crowd at the Rock City venue. "I'd rather drink them."

According to reports, the band lasted only 15 minutes before being forced to flee the stage.

"Thank you so much Nottingham," they tweeted later. "Sorry that a couple [of] people ruined it for everyone."

Their show in Nottingham was part of the Dot to Dot festival - meaning audience members may not have known what to expect from the act.

But audience member Patrick Mendes was unrepentant.

"I'm glad I lobbed a pint and I'm glad it hit you," he wrote on the group's Facebook page.

Complaining about their "mockery" of "one of the greatest bands of all time", he added: "Great art should never be compromised".

Another fan told the Nottingham Post: "It just sounds awful. I can't believe he is doing this. Why bother? It must go down well in America or something."

Pizza themed songs on cover tunes and he dares speak of great art? they should have showered him with piss.

Quite lucky to only have bottles and glasses lobbed at him in the crime capital of the UK.

Poor Macauley. First to get molested by Michael Jackson, and now this. The poor kid just can't catch a break. Although I heard Jackson gave pretty good head, so that bit wasn't quite so bad I suppose...
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

According to Mac, Jacko wasn't interested in him as a sex object. The plastic surgeon's goldmine was more into blowing Bubbles.












Bubbles, for those unfamiliar with Jackson's various possessions, was the name of his pet monkey.

Heh, the guy he portrayed in Party Monster got let out not too long ago, maybe he should form a cover band doing dubstep versions of Bob Dylan songs! :dance:
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

Some people just don't realise that the only thing they were successful at was being a child-star. Curly Temple at least noticed after a few years that the cuteness factor had disappeared with her childhood.

Velvet Underground songs with pizza themed lyrics and kazoo solos, and they got BOOED? Fuck me, what sort of Philistines are you lot? Don't you get the post-modern deconstructionist nihilism thing? Macaulay is fucking cutting edge. man! Or is that "cunting edge"?
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.
