Angry UB40 fans storm out of Leeds gig early
In a post on Facebook, Laura Coyle asked people what their opinions of the concert were before she shared her own. She wrote: "Everyone was leaving within 40 mins. We had been sat waiting since half 6, they didn’t come on till just after 9, then they announced a new vocalist singer !
"That’s like going to see Beyoncé and saying she’s not here so we’ve got a new vocalist for you yet charging the same prices! So so many people walked out - it was shocking."Others agreed and shared the view that the concert wasn't the same without former frontman Ali Campbell, who left in 2008 and formed another group called UB40. Laura Coyle said the band ""never once" mentioned he wouldn't be there.
Another commenter, Sarah Wright, wrote: "Tbh it wasn't great more a tribute act? Didn't play any of the best songs, no atmosphere x." Lisa Brockman said: "Waited 2yrs & tbh it was more like a tribute act? Didn't play any of there best hits no atmosphere & definitely not the same without Ali Campbell."
There are now two groups called UB40 who tour. One contains former frontman Ali Campbell along with keyboardist Mickey Virtue. Another contains the rest of the members, drummer Jimmy Brown, guitarist Robin Campbell, bassist Earl Falconer, percussionist Norman Hassan and new lead singer Matt Doyle.
