Reading the sign in Hull, which read \u201cthree times in three months,\u201d Martin responded, \u201cYou were at that Boston gig! Well, OK, thank you for coming again after that debacle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tAt the band\u2019s first concert after the apparent cheating video went viral, Martin made a point of warning the audience about what was coming, in case they were similarly unfamiliar. \u201cHow we\u2019re gonna do that is we\u2019re gonna use our cameras and put some of you on the big screen,\u201d he said. \u201cSo please, if you haven\u2019t done your makeup, do your makeup now.\u201d<\/p>\n<section class=\"brands-most-popular \/\/ recirculation-modules trending-in-article lrv-u-margin-tb-2 lrv-u-border-a-2 u-box-shadow-5-5 lrv-u-padding-lr-1 a-span1 u-padding-b-1@tablet u-overflow-hidden\">\n<h2 id=\"section-heading\" class=\"c-heading larva  lrv-u-text-align-center u-border-color-black a-font-theme-primary-xxs lrv-u-color-black lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase u-letter-spacing-0063 lrv-u-padding-t-050 u-padding-b-0375@tablet lrv-u-padding-b-050@mobile-max lrv-u-border-b-2\">\n<p>\t\tTrending Stories<\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\tWarnings have even started to show up in other artists\u2019 concerts. \u201cDo we have any lovebirds in the house?
