The Kaiser Chiefs singer, who is also known for his hatred of cars, and just about every other band on earth, is campaigning to have inflatable toys banned at the 02 Wireless Festival. No, really.

 

Because Ricky is known for dressing up an inflatable green dinosaur at Flastonbury 2005, he's become frustrated that people "expect" him to play with inflatable toys at festivals.

 

Ricky told The Daily Star, "It can get frustrating, you travel the world playing songs you've spent ages writing.


"You put on a wicked show and then someone throws an inflatable animal on stage and that's what you're known for. We just want to do what we do best now and play songs."

 

Yeah, life is really hard for Ricky. If you're going to the festival, try not to offend his delicate sensibilities with inflatable objects, okay? Because, seriously. If you did such a thing, it could be really stressful and difficult for the poor, tortured artist.
