Grammy winning folk band Mumford & Sons decided to go to an Atlanta strip club after their performance at the Centennial Olympic Park Tuesday night, but if they hoped to do so without notice, they failed. The group was reportedly kicked out of the club for trying to film one of their bandmates singing karaoke and using a camera in a strip club is big no-no.
TMZ is reporting that the group decided to celebrate after the show at the Clermont Lounge. It was karaoke night, so keyboardist Ben Lovett took the mike. Sources at the club say that the other members of the band took out their cell phones to record the moment, but management went asked them to put their phones away.
The DJ lowered the music a few times as they were told to put the phones away, but they didn’t Lovett even yelled at the DJ for screwing up his song. At that point, the other members started yelling curses at management. The manager had enough at this point and threw them out, according to TMZ sources. The site even obtained a video of the incident and a staffer is heard yelling “Everybody out! Go go go!”
According to The Huffington Post, the band’s rep hasn’t commented on the incident. For the record, Marcus Mumford is married to actress Carey Mulligan, so we can’t help but wonder what her reaction is.
