Meanwhile, The Vaccines recently supported Kings Of Leon on tour and revealed why they almost prefer it to playing their own gigs.
Asked if they were excited ahead of their support slot at BST Hyde Park, Asked if they were looking forward to playing Hyde Park, frontman Justin Young told Radio X's Sunta Templeton: "I’m from London and it’s quite special to play in the biggest park in your home city, right in the centre of town to however many tens of thousands of people and get to hang out with your friends and watch the headliner and stuff. I always really look forward to those.”
"It’s been great, actually," he added of supporting the Nashville indie giants on their tour in general. "It’s been really fun. I love supporting people, because unlike your own show - a bit like a festival I suppose - you’re not preaching to the converted as much.
"There’s like an evangelical element where you're having to win people over and I think because of their cross-over hits they have this quite mainstream crowd, many of whom don’t know who we are and stuff, so it’s a challenge every night to go out and win people over. I love that."
He added: "In some ways I like it almost more than playing to your own people. It’s maybe not more, but it's just a completely different experience.”
