CSS cut Brighton show short

Band walk offstage after Lovefoxx is hit by a shoe

CSS stormed offstage after singer Lovefoxx was hit by a shoe.

The band cut their set short after the frontwoman was hit in the face during their performance at The Dome in Brighton on Friday (December 14).

CSS's MySpace page was flooded with angry responses from disappointed fans following the gig who have pleaded with the band not to reject the town on future tours.

One fan wrote: "Who throws a shoe?" It's a shame that the actions of one idiot had to spoil the evening for everyone else. I hope it won't dissuade you from playing Brighton again - we love you!"

Another disappointed fan told BBC 6 Music, that the show was ruined by the shoe-throwing incident.

He added: "It hit her square in the face. This sucked. They carried on until the end of the song without the singer, then that was it. The keyboard player said: 'Why would you throw a shoe at Lovefoxx?! You ruined the whole flipping show for everybody!'.

The band are due to play Cambridge Corn Exchange on Monday (December 17).

Was at the gig.. The shoe throwing incident sucked but i think people demanding refunds for a gig cut short by the actions of an idiot sucked more. £15.00 is not a huge amount of money for what was ultimately a good night out.

Yep. Unfortunately the Klaxons probably would have played on. More people would be asking for their cash back then.

fair enough it was just one individual that ruined it for everybody...but they shouldn't have to play on if idiots are going to do that!

what gig were you all at. i was there and the crowd were shit. the band arent exactly brilliant. i thought yeah crowd might be alright, the atmosphere will make up for crap music but you get there and people have paid to sit at a gig like css. then i look around and every person in there is 35-40 with a partner so they wont jump around and 12 year olds that still havent quite understood wildness fun from just plain stupid. then the shoe in the face. alright i will agree it would hurt of course but look at manics and suede they got bottled nearly every week but they carried on. you have to. she could of played up to the crowd chucked the shoe back told em to go find it, tell em go fuck themselves anything . but no the fat arsed south american talentless bitch walks off. like i said to the bouncer "after that performance im suprised the shoe wasnt a high heel."
i wish i could get tickets for the morrissey gig so i could feel real atmosphere amongst the corwd not the feeling of being at the panto with grandma and grandad. shame on you css shame on you.
