FGL & Cops miscommunication

An Iowa sheriff was fuming after getting turned away backstage. Most law enforcement welcome the fact the band is self-sufficient. Sources close to FGL’s Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard say that security for their concerts is handled through the venues. It’s just part of their contracts for each gig. Local cops regularly ask if they can help out backstage, but they are usually told it’s not necessary. FGL’s team believes this frees up law enforcement for other security needs around the venue.

Security isn’t cheap for these guys, they don’t need extra police back stage and they shouldn’t be faulted for that!
