Sleaford Mods weren't impressed at all after finding out a female fan had been groped at their Bristol O2 Academy show on Saturday night (6 April).

A female fan was groped during their show in Bristol on Saturday night (6 April), and the duo responded to the reports yesterday (7 April), "Touching anyone without their consent is not acceptable no matter how you dress it up. If you think groping women is acceptable don’t bother buying a ticket, we don’t want your money & you’re not welcome."

We’ve had a report of a female fan being groped in the crowd last night. Touching anyone without their consent is not acceptable no matter how you dress it up. If you think groping women is acceptable don’t bother buying a ticket, we don’t want your money & you’re not welcome.

The duo are currently touring their most recent album, Eton Alive.

Last week Joe Talbot of IDLES responded to Sleaford Mods, calling Jason Williamson "a fucking bully" after Williamson had accused IDLES of class appropriation.

Sleaford Mods will continue with their UK tour on 11 April in Leamington Spa, and will play End Of The Road festival later this summer. Find out more.
