The Snuts say they are "absolutely furious" after they halted a show in Oxford last night, following what they say was inappropriate behaviour by some men in the audience.

The band from West Lothian were performing at the O2 Academy on Sunday.

But they stopped performing midway through their set, blaming the actions of some people in the crowd.

In a strongly worded statement on Twitter, the band said: "Apologies to everyone for stopping tonight's show. We are absolutely furious to learn about the behaviour of male fans at our show in Oxford.

"This is a male problem and it is only the responsibility of males to stamp it out.

"Noone should ever feel unsafe at gigs and it's your responsibility to report and call out your friends if they are acting like f** animals.

"We are not your f** lad band and you don't get to act like that at our shows."
