The band reportedly made comments at the expense of American rock band Vampire Weekend, who were scheduled to headline just after Jannabi’s concert.
The band members reportedly said during the event, “We started out in 2017 as the super rookies from Pentaport. And we were the first act on the smallest stage. But little by little, we got here. The hurdle wasn’t too far off.
They continued: ‘We don’t even know who the next band is.’
The performers also encouraged the crowd to leave before the next act.
They allegedly signaled: ‘Go home now, everyone. let’s Play [our song] ‘Come home,’ and then we’re going to go.’
