Kings of Leon to fans: "A million I'm sorry's."

American rock band Kings of Leon had to stop their Dallas, Texas concert last night as front man, Caleb Followill exited the stage.

Caleb, the second oldest brother among the Followill brothers stated earlier that night that his "voice is completely 100 percent wrong." Caleb left the stage but promised to return to the stage to play three more songs before ending the show.

According to reports, Jared Followill, the youngest brother and band's bassist, took over the microphone after realizing that Caleb wasn't returning to the stage to continue on with the show.

He apologized to their fans and said, "We are so unbelievably sorry, there's no words right now, honestly it's beyond our control. Caleb's just maybe a little unfit to play the rest of the show. We're so sorry guys, we love you all so much. I know you guys f**king hate us, I can't apologize enough."

Drummer Nathan Followill (eldest among the Followill brothers) extended his apologies to the fans once again through his Twitter account.

In his latest tweet, Nathan wrote: "Not so good morning 4 me today. Ashamed & embarrassed by last nights fiasco. Can't apologize enough, utterly gutted. A million I'm sorry's."

Jared also tweeted recently and wrote: "I love our fans so much. I know you guys aren't stupid. I can't lie. There are problems in our band bigger than not drinking enough GatoradeIt is unclear whether the concert will be rescheduled."

It is not clear whether the Dallas concert will be re-scheduled. The Houston concert scheduled today has also been canceled. According to Live Nation, the Houston concert has been postponed because
“Caleb Followill suffered from heat exhaustion and dehydration, causing his vocal chords to seize.”

Among Kings of Leon's fans are model Kate Moss, actors Kristen Stewart, Liv Tyler and Robert Pattison.

"If someone big is coming they usually won't tell us that's someone's coming because there's nothing you can do, that can only make you more nervous," drummer Nathan Followill said and added, "But is has been fun to look side stage and see someone and be like holy s*** I didn't know you were here!"

"That's Daniel Radcliffe! Wow! Harry!" bassist Caleb said, when British actor Daniel Radcliffe who is popular for his title role as Harry Potter in the Harry Potter franchise was spotted during the band's gig.
