Kings of Leon Surprise
. Twenty-four hours before the Nashville show happened no one even knew it would. The day prior, the band's management quickly rounded up a couple hundred fans online to attend the intimate showcase � a preview of new tracks from Come Around Sundown, due out Oct. 19 in North America and Oct. 18 in the U.K. Besides playing tried-and-true KOL hits "Sex on Fire," "Use Somebody," "Closer" and "Notion," the band trotted out many of their new songs, among them "Radioactive" and "Back Down South." Clutching the 1972 ES-325 that Gibson Repair & Restoration rebuilt after he smashed it on-stage in 2009, frontman Caleb Followill apologized to the audience that he'd be playing mostly new songs but asked that they act like they knew the songs because, "It'll look better on television." (The event also served as a videotaping for European television network ITV.) - more on this story
