US alternative rock band Kings of Leon performed on Sunday, 14 June at Unibet Arena in Tallinn, but what was supposed to be an eagerly awaited evening for the audience turned out to be a disappointment in many people's view. A wave of negative comments erupted on social media after the concert from both regular fans and prominent Estonian public figures.

Writer and designer Mari Ojasaar Parve made no secret of her disappointment. "We waited a long time for the band to get going, but it didn't," she wrote, suggesting that the band's performance never really took off from beginning to end. Beyond the weak performance, many listeners complained about poor sound quality, a problem that has plagued Unibet Arena in the past.

The criticism centred on two main points: weak stage performance and inadequate sound engineering. According to several commenters, Kings of Leon failed to create on the Tallinn stage the energy the band is otherwise known for.

Kings of Leon is a band from Tennessee whose hits such as "Use Somebody" and "Sex on Fire" have brought them worldwide fame. Estonian audiences had been looking forward to the concert, which is why the disappointment hit harder.
