Arctic Monkeys Didn't Take Any Shit

On their most recent photo shoot, that is. Via Daily Record:

ARCTIC MONKEYS had a toilet nicked when they were working on the artwork for their new album.

Three unoccupied houses featured designs from a number of artists. The interiors were painted for the cover and everything was going according to plan until some local kids took a toilet from one of the houses.

Luckily the guys were in good form and found it funny.

A spokesman said: "The band hung out with the kids, signing guitars and stuff and having cups of tea with the neighbours."

Don't blame the young hooligans for their attempted shitty larceny; blame the bad example set by those toilet-profiteering hippies.

 

RELATED: We're sure the Monkeys won't have such crap luck at Glastonbury. Who's going?

though i am no fan of 'rock am ring' at all, but the hives were popular in europe before they were even known in the states...

i wish i was going to glastonbury--it would make up for getting locked out of the nyc arcade fire shows. also, i ain't gonna lie, i'd be pretty psyched to see bjork live. at least the seventeen-year-old me would be.
