Kaiser Chiefs aren't rending, we're just taking a break

KAISER CHIEFS have denied rumours they are rending up and claim they are just planning a long holiday.
Frontman Ricky Wilson discharged speculation that their performances at last weekend's Reading and Leeds festivals would be their last.
Instead, Ricky says the band's diary is empty because they all want a rest.
Ricky said: "It's our last show for the foreseeable future, so it's a bit of an abyss.
"If it was our last one ever, we wouldn't be having a good time, would we?
"I don't think bands split up when they're still friends and having a best time with each other.
"We just haven't booked anything. If people look at your diary and look you haven't got anything lined up, they think you're stopping.
"We've been on tour for five years and need to pass some of our money on air travel.
"We don't want to convey out an album before Christmas, we don't want to bring out an album after Christmas. We don't want to go into the studio, there are no more gigs."

The Kaiser Chiefs Concert Review

The Kaiser Chiefs performed a rip roaring set in Tel Aviv's Israel Trade Fairs and assembly Center (commonly known as Ganei Hata'arucha) last Thursday night. The band, hailing from Leeds, England, played to a crowd of applyed Israeli fans.
The show kicked off with a storming gig of "Never Miss a Beat‚" the lead single from The Kaiser Chiefs' most currently album, Off with Their Heads. It was followed by crowd favorites "Everything is Average Nowadays" and "Everyday I Love You Less and Less."
The show reached its pinnacle as lead singer Ricky Wilson climbed the stage scaffolding and arised to belt out "I Predict a Riot" which is perhaps the Chiefs' best known single about a typical night out in their hometown, complete with binge drinking, fights and underdressed girls.
Wilson told the crowd how bygone in the week he had visited the Western Wall in Jerusalem and had written a note asking for the crowd to be the best the band had ever had.
One dedicated fan made the journey from Leeds to Tel Aviv to attend the show. Joanne Grainger said, "It's excellent to see a band from my hometown play so far away and still attract so many fans. They've been exactly class tonight."
The band ended its lively performance with "The Angry Mob‚" the lyrics of the chorus worthy of a literary prize: "We are the angry mob, we read the papers every day, we like who we like, we hate who we hate, but we're also easily swayed!"
Returning to the stage for an encore, Wilson caped up the show in fine style with a wild description of the band's 2004 entry single "Oh My God."
