Mark Foster kicked out of Prince gig for cell phone use
Foster The People frontman Mark Foster begged security guards to let him back into a Prince concert after he was kicked out for using his cell phone during the show.
The rocker attended a surprise gig by the Purple Rain hitmaker at the tiny Sayers Club in Hollywood on Tuesday (23Oct12) but he failed to comply with a mandatory mobile phone check-in on the door.
Midway through the concert, venue staff spotted Foster with the
device and booted him out of the concert - but he was allowed back
in after spending two minutes begging to be re-admitted and showing
security bosses there were no photos from the show on his
phone.
In film footage obtained by TMZ.com, Foster can be seen urging a
security boss to allow him back inside. Eventually he was
re-admitted to the concert after agreeing to check in his cell
phone.
