Rod Stewart is involved in a feud with Plymouth's Lord Mayor after his concert finished early.
The singer was performing at Plymouth's Home Park at the weekend when his show came to an end half an hour early and he couldn't perform one of his most loved songs.
The Lord Mayor has been wrongly accused by the star for stopping the concert, which he has since denied.
Rod said he was told to leave before he could sing his song Sailing in tribute to the city's historic naval status.
Those who were watching the concert said that just after 10.30pm the stage went into darkness as a "man in black" walked on and spoke to Rod.
After that the singing legend left and the lights came on.
According to reports, Rod told the crowd "the Lord Mayor had put a stop to it" despite the stadium having a licence until 11pm.
Fans have been slamming the Lord Mayor of Plymouth, Councillor Mark Shayer, who has denied any involvement in the situation.
He has since said that he has faced abuse from fans despite not even being at the event.
He said he has been "sworn at" when visiting the local shop as well as receiving abusive calls and messages.
According to the Daily Record he said: "I'm horrified to be implicated. To say I stopped Rod Stewart singing what is one of my favourite songs, on Armed Forces Day, it's ridiculous. I'm livid."
He said Sailing is one of his favourite songs and he was not able to attend the concert due to a clash with Armed Forces Day events.
One person who was in the crowd said the Lord Mayor was accused of being involved by Rod.
They said: "I was there - Rod Stewart said the Lord Mayor instructed the show to stop, thanks for turning up and he was gone. Before that he was called over to the side of the stage and someone spoke to him. I was in the second row so could clearly see him in a conversation. So, someone is lying one way or another."
Despite the venue having permission for concerts to run until 11pm, it is thoought the singer was due to finish at 10.30pm.
Plymouth City Council said: "Despite social media rumours and inaccurate, unsubstantiated reports online - Plymouth City Council and Home Park did not ask Rod Stewart to stop his concert on Saturday night.
"Any allegation that the Lord Mayor asked the performer to stop are also untrue. The Lord Mayor was not at the concert. Arts and culture are very important to Plymouth City Council and an integral part of growing our local economy.
"As with any concert, should a performer decide to end their set before the licenced curfew set out in the Special Events Certificate, it is not because of any decision made by the local authority or the venue."
