The singer, real name Damon Gough, is said to have become annoyed after suffering sound problems four songs in to the gig, reports Hollywoodreporter.com.

"I don't give a fuck, I'm going home man," Gough told the audience. "This is the end of the show for me. Because if these cunts keep saying shit I'm fucking off. Anyone else wanna say any shit to me?"

He added: "Do you think I enjoy this? Do you think I wanna be away from my two kids and do this shit? "

After a fan shouted out "give us our money back", Gough responded by calling her a "cunt". He said: "Anyone that doesn't wanna be here, fuck off. I'm gonna play some more songs. I'm trying my best, just fuck off if you don't wanna be here. Fuck off, you LA twats."

Gough then clarified his last statement: "I'm just saying the LA twats that need to fuck off, not the LA nice people."

He then launched into a version of 'What Tomorrow Brings', before finishing the set.

Later on, Gough reportedly called the show a "fucking disaster", adding: "I just want the world to swallow me up."
