In 2003, a concert in Leeds , West Yorkshire , England, had to be cancelled halfway through the set, after Leeds City Council officials suspected the 150-year-old floor of Leeds Town Hall might collapse. This led to the band sometimes being referred to as ‘the band who broke the floor’. Problems with drummer Nick Jago began surfacing publicly at the 2003 NME Awards , when Jago remained on stage for nine minutes, completely silent, while accepting an award.
